Learn about Windows PowerShell
Summary: Use Show-Command to display interactive Windows PowerShell parameter Help.
How do you display the parameters and parameter sets of Windows PowerShell cmdlets in an interactive fashion?
Use the Show-Command cmdlet from the Windows PowerShell console or the Windows PowerShell ISE:
Show-Command –name cmdletname
For example:
Show-Command get-process
This is the error message I got:
"The term 'Show-Command' 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 w
as included, verify that the path is correct and try again."
hi
@Earl
show-command it's in version 3 and it work only in ISE
@all Show command does work in the console as well as the ISE, but as Walid mentioned, it only works in PowerShell V3
@Earl Show-Command is included in PowerShell 3.0. You can get PowerShell 3.0 from here: www.microsoft.com/.../details.aspx
@Walid Toumi, @Boe Prox yes Show-Command works both in the PowerShell 3.0 console as well as with the ISE. In fact, show-Command appears two different ways in the ISE -- one is the Command Add-On, and the other is calling Show-Command directly.
Perhaps, the PowerTips should indicate which version or known version of PowerShell the tips work for.
