about_PowerShell_Config

In this video, we look at how to use powershell.config.json to configure your PowerShell environment.

You can open your LocalMachine config with the following command.

code (Join-Path $pshome "powershell.config.json")

To open your CurrentUser config, use the following command.

code (Join-Path (Split-Path $PROFILE.CurrentUserCurrentHost) "powershell.config.json")

A sample config looks like this.

{
    "Microsoft.PowerShell:ExecutionPolicy": "Unrestricted",
    "PSModulePath": "C:\\Modules",
    "ExperimentalFeatures": [
        "PSCommandNotFoundSuggestion"
    ],
    "DisableImplicitWinCompat": true
}
