June, 2014

We are very grateful to the Windows PowerShell MVPs Kirk Munro and Laurent Dardenne for providing lots of great ideas to enhance the Script Browser & Script Analyzer in the past 3 weeks.   Today, we are releasing the 1.3 update thanks to their suggestions. The team is committed to making the apps useful. Your feedback is very important to us.
 

Download Script Browser & Script Analyzer 1.3 
(If you have already installed an earlier version of Script Browser & Script Analyzer, you will get an update notification when you launch Windows PowerShell ISE.)

1. Support Sub-Categories in Search Filters

You can select sub categories in the Filters now!  In the following example, I selected Windows Azure / Automation sub category to look for all Azure automation script samples.

2. Save the Search Filters.

If you have some filter combination that you would like to use very often, you can save the search.

After saving the search, you can easily revisit the search in Saved Filters.

3. Add the support of ‘PowerShell Workflow’ scripts in the Script Browser.

4. In Script Analyzer, switching the code tab will no longer trigger the script analysis automatically

This change is based on the following user feedback and the discussion with MVPs.

5. Other UI enhancements:

a) Reduce the height of search result in the search result list, so that user can see more search results on the screen.

b) Make it more obvious how to close the Filter option with the ‘Apply Filters’ button.

We sincerely suggest you give the new Script Browser & Script Analyzer a try (click here to download). If you love what you see in Script Browser & Script Analyzer, please recommend it to your friends and colleagues. If you encounter any problems or have any suggestions for us, please contact us at onescript@microsoft.com. Your precious opinions and comments are more than welcome.

Enterprise Mode is a new feature in Internet Explorer that allows businesses to use old web applications in modern versions of IE. It is a compatibility mode that runs on Internet Explorer 11 on Windows 8.1. In a way, if we want to open multiple sites as Enterprise Mode, we have to set it manually. Actually we can add multiple sites to your Enterprise Mode site list by creating a XML file of problematic sites, and with use this script to add site list to Enterprise Mode.
