A PowerShell module consisting of an assortment of useful scripts.
- PowerShell 3.0 (or later)
Some functions require a later PowerShell version
The module is published to the PowerShell Gallery:
Install-Module -Name PSWinGlueDownload the ZIP file of the latest release and unpack it to one of the following locations:
- Current user:
C:\Users\<your.account>\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\PSWinGlue - All users:
C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\PSWinGlue
You can also clone the repository into one of the above locations if you'd like the ability to easily update it via Git.
You can check that PowerShell is able to locate the module by running the following at a PowerShell prompt:
Get-Module PSWinGlue -ListAvailableThis module has been written to support two methods of using the functions it includes:
- As a regular PowerShell module (i.e. install module and call the commands it exports)
- Calling individual functions directly via their script file independent of the module
To support the latter, each exported function resides in its own script file and has no dependencies on code elsewhere in the module. This allows for easy usage of the functions in scenarios where it may not be desirable to install the entire module (e.g. logon scripts or in other automated contexts). A given script can simply be copied to the desired location and directly called, typically with no additional setup beyond any documented external dependencies.
