Hi Powershell Guru,
I am trying to create a Powershell 5.1 profile on Windows 10 Pro. with the following steps but kept encountering a persistent error:
( i ) C:>dir c:mypreferredconsole.psc
13-Jun-18 7:10 AM 159 mypreferredconsole.psc
( ii ) The content of C:mypreferredconsole.psc is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<PSConsoleFile ConsoleSchemaVersion="1.0">
<PSVersion>5.1.17134.81</PSVersion>
<PSSnapIns />
</PSConsoleFile>
( iii ) Create a shortcut on the Desktop. Make the target (the destination) of that shortcut
C:Windowssystem32WindowsPowerShellv1.0powershell.exe -noexit -psconsolefile c:mypreferredconsole.psc
Yet I kept getting the error below in a Powershell window after double clicked the shortcut :
-psconsoleFile : The term '-psconsoleFile' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a
path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.
At line:1 char:1
+ -psconsoleFile c:mypreferredconsole.psc
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (-psconsoleFile:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException
Changing suffix .psc to .psc1 did not make any difference.
Thanks in advance,
Mary
