Great, now install Powershell 7+ by default.
I'm tired of having to use Powershell 5 for anything that will run on remote servers or clients.

If I have to use windows, I write batch scripts. They still work and there is a lot of documentation online. There’s even a good set of GUI dialogs with WizApp (or the Zenity port).

Why would you do that to yourself

Batch scripts run on my locked-down work laptop. Powershell requires administrator privileges that I don’t have.

I don’t make the rules, I just evade them :D
