Hi All,

Yesterday Microsoft has released the PowerShell Version 7.6.8

GitHub v7.6.8 Release of PowerShell

Sad to see that the Update Notification has been removed.

Assets

Installation

I’ve downloaded the x64 MSI and started it

Installation was successfull

Testing

Start PowerShell 7 without Profile

start pwsh -noprofile

Let’s fire up PowerShell and check the Version

$PSVersionTable
Get-Host

Looks like my PowerShell Module for updating the M365 Modules M365PSProfile still works. Find the Documentation here: GitHub Documentation

# Install-PSResource -Name M365PSProfile -Scope CurrentUser
# Add-M365PSProfile
Install-M365Module
