How to install powershell on windows 8.1?

Question

PowerShell

I downloaded the installer from the official site, and in the best traditions of Microsoft, it gives out crap.
update for windows (kb3134758) is already installed on this computer
and that's it, the installation just turns off.
How to deal with this error?
windows 8.1
powershell I'm trying to install 5.0 or some other version.

Answer 1

Check if it is disabled in windows features

Answer 2

So there is no error. You already have the package installed, check for all versions of .NET, you may need to reinstall them. Look for powershell here: %SystemRoot%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\PowerShell.exe

Answer 3

powershell in windows 7 and higher comes by default
, so you don't need to install "any other" version, if you install it, then only the 5th
5th, right, is installed with the windows management framework (you specified the correct KB)
1. Check PowerShell version (powershell code):
2. Check the .net version (copy-paste from here ), powershell code:

Get-ChildItem 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP' -recurse |
Get-ItemProperty -name Version,Release -EA 0 |
Where { $_.PSChildName -match '^(?!S)\p{L}'} |
Select PSChildName, Version, Release, @{
  name="Product"
  expression={
      switch($_.Release) {
        378389 { [Version]"4.5" }
        378675 { [Version]"4.5.1" }
        378758 { [Version]"4.5.1" }
        379893 { [Version]"4.5.2" }
        393295 { [Version]"4.6" }
        393297 { [Version]"4.6" }
        394254 { [Version]"4.6.1" }
        394271 { [Version]"4.6.1" }
      }
    }
}

Starting from Windows 7 - Powershell comes as part of the OS, you can upgrade to Powershell v5
Windows Management Framework 5.0
in a separate package Start / All Programs / Windows Powershell / PowerShell ISE
Or just go to Start / Run > PowerShell_ISE.exe
