PowerShell is a powerful scripting tool that can greatly expedite your admin tasks. If you haven’t had a chance to learn how to use it, you might want to make time for it now. Here are some reasons why the effort will pay off. 1: It’s not going away any time soon Microsoft has made it clear that Power Shell is here to stay.

Part of the reason why Microsoft has done this is that going forward, many add-on products will be based on PowerShell. 2: Most Microsoft products will eventually use it Virtually all of the server products Microsoft is producing right now can be managed through PowerShell. From an administrative standpoint, this means that if you become proficient in PowerShell, you will have the skill set necessary for managing most of Microsoft’s newer products. The basic built-in PowerShell commands are used in every product that supports Pow...
