Windows PowerShell vs PowerShell Core - What Is It?

Did you know about this?

▼ Time Stamps: ▼
0:00 - Intro
0:54 - Different 'Types' of PowerShell
5:36 - PowerShell Core
8:05 - PowerShell ISE
9:42 - Should You Install It?

Corrections:
6:03 - The "Core" naming was actually dropped from .NET Core, and now it is just called ".NET". Though I believe it is still a subset of the overall ".NET Framework"
8:05 - While Powershell ISE is included with Windows Powershell 5.1, it is no longer being actively developed. Instead, the official recommendation is to use Visual Studio Code with the PowerShell Extension

A few updates as people have mentioned:
• Though Powershell ISE comes pre-installed, it is no longer in active feature development. Instead it's officially recommended to use Visual Studio Code with the Powershell Extension
• Turns out the .NET "Core" name was simply dropped, and it's now just called .NET (though from my understanding, it is still a subset of the overall ".NET Framework")

Never expected PowerShell lore to be this deep tbh.

If your company’s IT ADMIN needs to be taught Infrastructure after XP, I think it’s time to upgrade the entire IT Department 😂

Dotnet core is now just called dotnet, I suspect that's the reason for powershell core got changed to powershell

I am glad this video was made because when my PC starts I run a PS Script that sets up what I will be doing at least for the first few hours of my morning. I also have another Script I enable when I know ahead of time that say I'll be gaming all day so it stops a LOT of unnecessary processing that would normally run in the background from applications like Adobe, Autodesk, Microsoft Notepad, etc.. I'll definitely take a look at the changes and see if I can optimize some of it or it it's just as efficient without let it continue to do the thing with the funny characters I type on the picture box I sit in front of for 18 hours a day ...lmao. Cheers! Stay Healthy and Stay Sane!

I normally use it in the same way I used Command Prompt, but also use the ISE to make a script that can automate some of those tasks.

I was randomly searching about this today because of that message on the terminal! Glad you made a video about this to talk about this as well!

I just cannot believe that this is the same guy that told me to charge me phone with aluminium foil, this is no man's sky level come back but for a youtuber

I'm glad you made this video! I was using the new Terminal app in Windows and then I was getting the prompt to "update to the latest Powershell". So I was very confused for a hot minute there.

I was just wondered about PowerShell a few days back. And here you are... What a coincidence

[henryfleischer]

Ah, that explains a lot... I was having trouble settling up something that said I should use Powershell 7, as I ignored that, assuming that I had the latest version. Because that's how Windows 10 normally works.

What about normal Powershell vs Powershell for Visual Studio Community 2022?

[pyp]

Ah yes PowerShell and PowerShell Core! I switched to PowerShell core, because it's overall better than the old legacy version.

[Lirchicus]

Quick points... .NET Core is a superset to .NET Framework as Core contains Framework as well as Core. Also "winget install powershell". Great video!

[horatiuslavescu]

I like the prompts you set in those consoles. How can we set the same?

[JonathanSteadman]

Awesome video. Windows power shell is the most useful tool ever for me lol .

I love to know if anyone uses PowerShell on Linux and what their experiences with it are like.
