Powershell Curl



This module is a utility module to help convert curl commands to Invoke-RestMethod syntax. This module includes classes for dealing with the curl command as well as URLs, but primarily converts curl commands to Invoke-RestMethod syntax with the ConvertTo-IRM function. To install the module. The Invoke-RestMethod cmdlet sends HTTP and HTTPS requests to Representational State Transfer (REST) web services that return richly structured data. PowerShell formats the response based to the data type. For an RSS or ATOM feed, PowerShell returns the Item or Entry XML nodes.

There are multiple ways to install PowerShell in Windows.

Prerequisites

The latest release of PowerShell is supported on Windows 7 SP1, Server 2008 R2, and later versions.

To enable PowerShell remoting over WSMan, the following prerequisites need to be met:

  • Install the Universal C Runtime onWindows versions predating Windows 10. It's available via direct download or Windows Update. Fullypatched systems already have this package installed.
  • Install the Windows Management Framework (WMF) 4.0 or newer on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008R2. For more information about WMF, see WMF Overview.

Download the installer package

To install PowerShell on Windows, download the latest install package from GitHub. You can alsofind the latest preview version. Scroll down to the Assets section of the Release page. TheAssets section may be collapsed, so you may need to click to expand it.

Installing the MSI package

The MSI file looks like PowerShell-<version>-win-<os-arch>.msi. For example:

  • PowerShell-7.1.3-win-x64.msi
  • PowerShell-7.1.3-win-x86.msi

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

The installer creates a shortcut in the Windows Start Menu.

  • By default the package is installed to $env:ProgramFilesPowerShell<version>
  • You can launch PowerShell via the Start Menu or $env:ProgramFilesPowerShell<version>pwsh.exe

Note

PowerShell 7.1 installs to a new directory and runs side-by-side with Windows PowerShell 5.1.PowerShell 7.1 is an in-place upgrade that replaces PowerShell 6.x. or PowerShell 7.0.

  • PowerShell 7.1 is installed to $env:ProgramFilesPowerShell7
  • The $env:ProgramFilesPowerShell7 folder is added to $env:PATH
  • The $env:ProgramFilesPowerShell6 folder is deleted

If you need to run PowerShell 7.1 side-by-side with other versions, use the ZIP installmethod to install the other version to a different folder.

Administrative install from the command line

MSI packages can be installed from the command line allowing administrators to deploy packageswithout user interaction. The MSI package includes the following properties to control theinstallation options:

  • ADD_EXPLORER_CONTEXT_MENU_OPENPOWERSHELL - This property controls the option for adding theOpen PowerShell item to the context menu in Windows Explorer.
  • ADD_FILE_CONTEXT_MENU_RUNPOWERSHELL - This property controls the option for adding theRun with PowerShell item to the context menu in Windows Explorer.
  • ENABLE_PSREMOTING - This property controls the option for enabling PowerShell remoting duringinstallation.
  • REGISTER_MANIFEST - This property controls the option for registering the Windows EventLogging manifest.

The following example shows how to silently install PowerShell with all the install options enabled.

For a full list of command-line options for Msiexec.exe, seeCommand line options.

Registry keys created during installation

Beginning in PowerShell 7.1, the MSI package creates registry keys that store the installationlocation and version of PowerShell. These values are located inHKLMSoftwareMicrosoftPowerShellCoreInstalledVersions<GUID>. The value of<GUID> is unique for each build type (release or preview), major version, and architecture.

ReleaseArchitectureRegistry Key
7.1.x Releasex86HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftPowerShellCoreInstalledVersions1d00683b-0f84-4db8-a64f-2f98ad42fe06
7.1.x Releasex64HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftPowerShellCoreInstalledVersions31ab5147-9a97-4452-8443-d9709f0516e1
7.1.x Previewx86HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftPowerShellCoreInstalledVersions86abcfbd-1ccc-4a88-b8b2-0facfde29094
7.1.x Previewx64HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftPowerShellCoreInstalledVersions39243d76-adaf-42b1-94fb-16ecf83237c8

This can be used by administrators and developers to find the path to PowerShell. The <GUID>values will be the same for all preview and minor version releases. The <GUID>values are changed for each major release.

Installing the ZIP package

Adobe acrobat dc amtlib.dll crack mac. PowerShell binary ZIP archives are provided to enable advanced deployment scenarios. Download one ofthe following ZIP archives from the [releases][releases] page.

  • PowerShell-7.1.3-win-x64.zip
  • PowerShell-7.1.3-win-x86.zip
  • PowerShell-7.1.3-win-arm64.zip
  • PowerShell-7.1.3-win-arm32.zip

Depending on how you download the file you may need to unblock the file using the Unblock-Filecmdlet. Unzip the contents to the location of your choice and run pwsh.exe from there. Unlikeinstalling the MSI packages, installing the ZIP archive doesn't check for prerequisites. Forremoting over WSMan to work properly, ensure that you've met the prerequisites.

Use this method to install the ARM-based version of PowerShell on computers like the MicrosoftSurface Pro X. For best results, install PowerShell to the to $env:ProgramFilesPowerShell7folder.

Note

You can use this method to install any version of PowerShell including the latest:

  • Stable release: https://aka.ms/powershell-release?tag=stable
  • Preview release: https://aka.ms/powershell-release?tag=preview
  • LTS release: https://aka.ms/powershell-release?tag=lts

Deploying on Windows 10 IoT Enterprise

Windows 10 IoT Enterprise comes with Windows PowerShell, which we can use to deploy PowerShell 7.

  1. Create PSSession to target device

  2. Copy the ZIP package to the device

  3. Connect to the device and expand the archive

  4. Set up remoting to PowerShell 7

  5. Connect to PowerShell 7 endpoint on device

Deploying on Windows 10 IoT Core

Windows 10 IoT Core adds Windows PowerShell when you include IOT_POWERSHELL feature, which we canuse to deploy PowerShell 7. The steps defined above for Windows 10 IoT Enterprise can be followedfor IoT Core as well.

For adding the latest PowerShell in the shipping image, use Import-PSCoreRelease command toinclude the package in the workarea and add OPENSRC_POWERSHELL feature to your image.

Note

For ARM64 architecture, Windows PowerShell is not added when you include IOT_POWERSHELL. So thezip based install will not work. You will need to use Import-PSCoreRelease command to add it inthe image.

Deploying on Nano Server

These instructions assume that the Nano Server is a 'headless' OS that has a version of PowerShellis already running on it. Win32_10060 anydesk latest. For more information, see theNano Server Image Builder documentation.

PowerShell binaries can be deployed using two different methods.

  1. Offline - Mount the Nano Server VHD and unzip the contents of the zip file to your chosenlocation within the mounted image.
  2. Online - Transfer the zip file over a PowerShell Session and unzip it in your chosen location.
Powershell curl

In both cases, you need the Windows 10 x64 ZIP release package. Run the commands within an'Administrator' instance of PowerShell.

Offline Deployment of PowerShell

  1. Use your favorite zip utility to unzip the package to a directory within the mounted Nano Serverimage.
  2. Unmount the image and boot it.
  3. Connect to the built-in instance of Windows PowerShell.
  4. Follow the instructions to create a remoting endpoint using the 'another instance technique'.

Online Deployment of PowerShell

Deploy PowerShell to Nano Server using the following steps.

Powershell curl parametersPost
  • Connect to the built-in instance of Windows PowerShell

  • Copy the file to the Nano Server instance

  • Enter the session

  • Extract the ZIP file

  • If you want WSMan-based remoting, follow the instructions to create a remoting endpoint using the'another instance technique'.

Install as a .NET Global tool

If you already have the .NET Core SDK installed, it's easy to install PowerShellas a .NET Global tool.

The dotnet tool installer adds $env:USERPROFILE.dotnettools to your $env:PATH environmentvariable. However, the currently running shell doesn't have the updated $env:PATH. You can startPowerShell from a new shell by typing pwsh.

Install PowerShell via Winget

The winget command-line tool enables developers to discover, install, upgrade, remove, andconfigure applications on Windows 10 computers. This tool is the client interface to the WindowsPackage Manager service.

Note

The winget Youtube vivaldi four seasons full. tool is currently a preview. Not all planned functionality is available at this time.You should not use this method in a production deployment scenario. See the winget documentationfor a list of system requirements and install instructions.

Powershell Curl -x

The following commands can be used to install PowerShell using the published winget packages:

  1. Search for the latest version of PowerShell

  2. Install a version of PowerShell using the --exact parameter

Installing from the Microsoft Store

PowerShell 7.1 has been published to the Microsoft Store. You can find the PowerShell release on theMicrosoft Store website or in theStore application in Windows.

Benefits of the Microsoft Store package:

  • Automatic updates built right into Windows 10
  • Integrates with other software distribution mechanisms like Intune and SCCM

Limitations:

MSIX packages run in an application sandbox that virtualizes access to some filesystem and registrylocations.

  • All registry changes under HKEY_CURRENT_USER are copied on write to a private, per-user, per-applocation. Therefore, those values are not available to other applications.
  • Any system-level configuration settings stored in $PSHOME cannot be modified. This includes theWSMAN configuration. This prevents remote sessions from connecting to Store-based installs ofPowerShell. User-level configurations and SSH remoting are supported.

For more information, seeUnderstanding how packaged desktop apps run on Windows.

Using the MSIX package

Note

The preview builds of PowerShell include an MSIX package. The MSIX package is not officiallysupported. The package is built for testing purposes during the preview period.

To manually install the MSIX package on a Windows 10 client, download the MSIX package from ourGitHub [releases][releases] page. Scroll down to the Assets section of the Release you want toinstall. The Assets section may be collapsed, so you may need to click to expand it.

The MSIX file looks like this - PowerShell-<version>-win-<os-arch>.msix

To install the package, you must use the Add-AppxPackage cmdlet.

How to create a remoting endpoint

PowerShell supports the PowerShell Remoting Protocol (PSRP) over both WSMan and SSH. For moreinformation, see:

Upgrading an existing installation

For best results when upgrading, you should use the same install method you used when you firstinstalled PowerShell. Each installation method installs PowerShell in a different location. If youare not sure how PowerShell was installed, you can compare the installed location with the packageinformation in this article. If you installed via the MSI package, that information appears in thePrograms and Features Control Panel.

Installation support

Microsoft supports the installation methods in this document. There may be other methods ofinstallation available from other sources. While those tools and methods may work, Microsoft cannotsupport those methods.
