and <a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/whats-new/what-s-new-in-powershell-70?view=powershell-7.4" data-linktype="relative-path">new features</a>.</p>
<ul>
<li>Installs and runs side-by-side with Windows PowerShell</li>
<li>Improved compatibility with existing Windows PowerShell modules</li>
<li>New language features, like ternary operators and <code>ForEach-Object -Parallel</code></li>
<li>Improved performance</li>
<li>SSH-based remoting</li>
<li>Cross-platform interoperability</li>
<li>Support for Docker containers</li>
</ul>
<p>PowerShell 7 works side-by-side with Windows PowerShell letting you easily test and compare between
editions before deployment. Migration is simple, quick, and safe.</p>
<p>PowerShell 7 is supported on the following Windows operating systems:</p>
<ul>
<li>Windows 10, and 11</li>
<li>Windows Server 2016, 2019, and 2022</li>
</ul>
<p>PowerShell 7 also runs on macOS and several Linux distributions. For a list of supported operating
systems and information about the support lifecycle, see the <a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/install/powershell-support-lifecycle?view=powershell-7.4" data-linktype="relative-path">PowerShell Support Lifecycle</a>.</p>
<div class="heading-wrapper" data-heading-level="h2"><a class="anchor-link docon docon-link" href="#installing-powershell-7" aria-label="Section titled: Installing PowerShell 7"></a><h2 id="installing-powershell-7" class="heading-anchor">Installing PowerShell 7</h2></div>
<p>For flexibility and to support the needs of IT, DevOps engineers, and developers, there are several
options available to install PowerShell 7. In most cases, the installation options can be reduced to
the following methods:</p>
<ul>
<li>Deploy PowerShell using the <a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/install/installing-powershell-on-windows?view=powershell-7.4#msi" data-linktype="relative-path">MSI package</a></li>
<li>Deploy PowerShell using the <a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/install/installing-powershell-on-windows?view=powershell-7.4#zip" data-linktype="relative-path">ZIP package</a></li>
</ul>
<div class="alert is-info">
<p class="alert-title"><span class="docon docon-status-error-outline" aria-hidden="true"></span> Note</p>
<p>The MSI package can be deployed and updated with management products such as
<a href="/en-us/configmgr/apps/" data-linktype="absolute-path">Microsoft Configuration Manager</a>. Download the packages from
<a href="https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/releases" data-linktype="external">GitHub Release page</a>.</p>
</div>
<p>Deploying the MSI package requires Administrator permission. The ZIP package can be deployed by any
user. The ZIP package is the easiest way to install PowerShell 7 for testing, before committing to a
full installation.</p>
<p>You may also install PowerShell 7 via the Windows Store or <code>winget</code>. For more information about both
of these methods, see the detailed instructions in <a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/install/installing-powershell-on-windows?view=powershell-7.4#winget" data-linktype="relative-path">Installing PowerShell on Windows</a>.</p>
<div class="heading-wrapper" data-heading-level="h2"><a class="anchor-link docon docon-link" href="#using-powershell-7-side-by-side-with-windows-powershell-51" aria-label="Section titled: Using PowerShell 7 side-by-side with Windows PowerShell 5.1"></a><h2 id="using-powershell-7-side-by-side-with-windows-powershell-51" class="heading-anchor">Using PowerShell 7 side-by-side with Windows PowerShell 5.1</h2></div>
<p>PowerShell 7 is designed to coexist with Windows PowerShell 5.1. The following features ensure that
your investment in PowerShell is protected and your migration to PowerShell 7 is simple.</p>
<ul>
<li>Separate installation path and executable name</li>
<li>Separate PSModulePath</li>
<li>Separate profiles for each version</li>
<li>Improved module compatibility</li>
<li>New remoting endpoints</li>
<li>Group policy support</li>
<li>Separate Event logs</li>
</ul>

<p>PowerShell 7.4 is built on .NET 8.0. Windows PowerShell 5.1 is built on .NET Framework 4.x. The
differences between the .NET versions might affect the behavior of your scripts, especially if you
are calling .NET method directly. For more information,
<a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/whats-new/differences-from-windows-powershell?view=powershell-7.4" data-linktype="relative-path">Differences between Windows PowerShell 5.1 and PowerShell 7.x</a>.</p>
<div class="heading-wrapper" data-heading-level="h3"><a class="anchor-link docon docon-link" href="#separate-installation-path-and-executable-name" aria-label="Section titled: Separate installation path and executable name"></a><h3 id="separate-installation-path-and-executable-name" class="heading-anchor">Separate installation path and executable name</h3></div>
<p>PowerShell 7 installs to a new directory, enabling side-by-side execution with Windows PowerShell
5.1.</p>
<p>Install locations by version:</p>
<ul>
<li>Windows PowerShell 5.1: <code>$env:WINDIR\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0</code></li>
<li>PowerShell 6.x: <code>$env:ProgramFiles\PowerShell\6</code></li>
<li>PowerShell 7: <code>$env:ProgramFiles\PowerShell\7</code></li>
</ul>
<p>The new location is added to your PATH allowing you to run both Windows PowerShell 5.1 and
PowerShell 7. If you're migrating from PowerShell 6.x to PowerShell 7, PowerShell 6 is removed and
the PATH replaced.</p>
<p>In Windows PowerShell, the PowerShell executable is named <code>powershell.exe</code>. In version 6 and above,
the executable is named <code>pwsh.exe</code>. The new name makes it easy to support side-by-side execution of
both versions.</p>
<div class="heading-wrapper" data-heading-level="h3"><a class="anchor-link docon docon-link" href="#separate-psmodulepath" aria-label="Section titled: Separate PSModulePath"></a><h3 id="separate-psmodulepath" class="heading-anchor">Separate PSModulePath</h3></div>
<p>By default, Windows PowerShell and PowerShell 7 store modules in different locations. PowerShell 7
combines those locations in the <code>$Env:PSModulePath</code> environment variable. When importing a module by
name, PowerShell checks the location specified by <code>$Env:PSModulePath</code>. This allows PowerShell 7 to
load both Core and Desktop modules.</p>

<p>Most of the modules you use in Windows PowerShell 5.1 already work with PowerShell 7, including
Azure PowerShell and Active Directory. We're continuing to work with other teams to add native
PowerShell 7 support for more modules including Microsoft Graph, Office 365, and others. For the
current list of supported modules, see <a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/whats-new/module-compatibility?view=powershell-7.4" data-linktype="relative-path">PowerShell 7 module compatibility</a>.</p>
<div class="alert is-info">
<p class="alert-title"><span class="docon docon-status-error-outline" aria-hidden="true"></span> Note</p>
<p>On Windows, we've also added a <strong>UseWindowsPowerShell</strong> switch to <code>Import-Module</code> to ease the
transition to PowerShell 7 for those using incompatible modules. For more information on this

<p>PowerShell remoting lets you run any PowerShell command on one or more remote computers. You can
establish persistent connections, start interactive sessions, and run scripts on remote computers.</p>

<p>Windows PowerShell 5.1 and below use the WS-Management (WSMAN) protocol for connection negotiation
and data transport. Windows Remote Management (WinRM) uses the WSMAN protocol. If WinRM has been
enabled, PowerShell 7 uses the existing Windows PowerShell 5.1 endpoint named <code>Microsoft.PowerShell</code>
for remoting connections. To update PowerShell 7 to include its own endpoint, run the
<code>Enable-PSRemoting</code> cmdlet. For information about connecting to specific endpoints, see
<a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/security/remoting/wsman-remoting-in-powershell?view=powershell-7.4" data-linktype="relative-path">WS-Management Remoting in PowerShell</a></p>
<p>To use Windows PowerShell remoting, the remote computer must be configured for remote management.

<p>SSH-based remoting was added in PowerShell 6.x to support other operating systems that can't use
Windows native components like <strong>WinRM</strong>. SSH remoting creates a PowerShell host process on the
target computer as an SSH subsystem. For details and examples on setting up SSH-based remoting on
Windows or Linux, see: <a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/security/remoting/ssh-remoting-in-powershell?view=powershell-7.4" data-linktype="relative-path">PowerShell remoting over SSH</a>.</p>

<p>The PowerShell Gallery (PSGallery) contains a module and cmdlet that automatically configures
SSH-based remoting. Install the <code>Microsoft.PowerShell.RemotingTools</code> module from the

<p>PowerShell 7 includes Group Policy templates and an installation script in <code>$PSHOME</code>.</p>
<p>Group Policy tools use administrative template files (<code>.admx</code>, <code>.adml</code>) to populate policy settings
in the user interface. This allows administrators to manage registry-based policy settings. The
<code>InstallPSCorePolicyDefinitions.ps1</code> script installs PowerShell Administrative Templates on the

<p><a href="https://code.visualstudio.com/" data-linktype="external">Visual Studio Code (VSCode)</a> with the <a href="https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/powershell" data-linktype="external">PowerShell Extension</a> is the supported scripting
environment for PowerShell 7. The Windows PowerShell Integrated Scripting Environment (ISE) only
supports Windows PowerShell.</p>
<p>The updated PowerShell extension includes:</p>
<ul>
<li>New ISE compatibility mode</li>
<li>PSReadLine in the Integrated Console, including syntax highlighting, multi-line editing, and back
search</li>
<li>Stability and performance improvements</li>
<li>New CodeLens integration</li>
<li>Improved path autocompletion</li>
</ul>
<p>To make the transition to Visual Studio Code easier, use the <strong>Enable ISE Mode</strong> function available
in the <strong>Command Palette</strong>. This function switches VSCode into an ISE-style layout. The ISE-style
layout gives you all the new features and capabilities of PowerShell in a familiar user experience.</p>
<p>To switch to the new ISE layout, press <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>Shift</kbd>+<kbd>P</kbd> to open the
<strong>Command Palette</strong>, type <code>PowerShell</code> and select <strong>PowerShell: Enable ISE Mode</strong>.</p>
<p>To set the layout to the original layout, open the <strong>Command Palette</strong>, select
<strong>PowerShell: Disable ISE Mode (restore to defaults)</strong>.</p>
<p>For details about customizing the VSCode layout to ISE, see
<a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/dev-cross-plat/vscode/how-to-replicate-the-ise-experience-in-vscode?view=powershell-7.4" data-linktype="relative-path">How to Replicate the ISE Experience in Visual Studio Code</a></p>
<div class="alert is-info">
<p class="alert-title"><span class="docon docon-status-error-outline" aria-hidden="true"></span> Note</p>
<p>There are no plans to update the ISE with new features. In the latest versions of Windows 10 or
Windows Server 2019 and higher, the ISE is now a user-uninstallable feature. There are no plans to
permanently remove the ISE. The PowerShell Team and its partners are focused on improving the
scripting experience in the PowerShell extension for Visual Studio Code.</p>
