What's the impact of these changes on Windows PowerShell?
Windows PowerShell has the following system and feature requirements:
Windows PowerShell requires the Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0.
Windows PowerShell ISE, the graphical user interface program for Windows PowerShell, requires the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 with Service Pack 1.
The Out-GridView cmdlet requires the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 with Service Pack 1.
The Get-WinEvent cmdlet requires Windows Vista or later versions of Windows and the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5.
The Export-Counter cmdlet runs only on Windows 7 and later versions of Windows.
The WMI-based remoting features of Windows PowerShell require no configuration and run on all versions of Windows that support Windows PowerShell. The WS-Management-based remoting features require both the local and remote computers to run Windows Vista or a later version of Windows. Also, you must enable and configure WS-Management on all participating computers. For more information, see About_Remote.
Several cmdlets work only when the current user is a member of the Administrators group on the computer or when the current user can provide the credentials of a member of the Administrators group. This requirement is explained in the Help topics for the affected cmdlets.
