PowerShell/README.md

Mega Collection of PowerShell Scripts
=====================================

**This repository provides more than 250 useful and cross-platform PowerShell scripts in the [Scripts](Scripts/) subfolder - to be used by command-line interface (CLI), for remote control (e.g. via SSH), by context menu, by [voice control](Docs/VoiceControl.md), by automation software like [Jenkins](https://www.jenkins.io/), automatically as daily tasks, or simply to learn PowerShell. See the [FAQ page](Docs/FAQ.md) if you need help or have any questions.**

**Note:** the scripts fully support Unicode characters. It's recommended to use a modern console supporting UTF-8 (e.g. Windows Terminal).
