Read the installation instructions to get more details on how to use the extension on these platforms. For Windows PowerShell 5.1, .NET Framework 4.8 or higher is required. Installing the Extension The PowerShell extension can be installed from the Visual Studio Code Marketplace by clicking the Install Button. You can also install the PowerShell extension from within VS Code by opening the Extensions view with keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+X, typing PowerShell, and selecting the extension. We would encourage you to try the pre-release version whenever possible. When a Pre-Release is available, it can be installed from the marketplace using the Switch to Pre-Release Version button. You can switch back to the stable version of the extension by using the Switch to Release Version button that will appear. You can also downgrade to other versions of the extension using the arrow next to the Uninstall button and choosing Install Another Version. Getting Help Please our support document.
