Package installation instructions

###MSI: To install PowerShell on Windows Full SKU (works on Win7 SP1 and above - x64 based systems), download either the MSI from AppVeyor for a nightly build, or a released package from our GitHub releases page. The MSI file looks like this - PowerShell_6.0.0.buildversion.msi

Once downloaded, double-click the installer and follow the prompts.

There is a shortcut placed in the Start Menu upon installation.

By default the package is installed to $env:ProgramFiles\PowerShell\

###APPX/WSA: Additionally, we provide APPX/WSA packages (that are compatible with Nano Server and works on Win10 x64 and above systems), but these must be self-signed prior to install. See the Sign-Package.ps1 script for details.

When using APPX/WSA, the OS needs to be configured to allow sideloading apps

Artifact installation instructions

We publish an archive with CoreCLR and FullCLR bits on every CI build with AppVeyor.

CoreCLR artifacts

  • Download zip package from artifacts tab of the particular build.
  • Unblock zip file: right-click in File Explorer -> Properties -> check 'Unblock' box -> apply
  • Extract zip file to bin directory
  • ./bin/powershell.exe
