SlurdgeTools 1.1.0

Install

irm https://powershell.now.ovh/install.ps1 | iex

The same thing by hand:

Register-PSResourceRepository -Name SlurdgeTools -Uri https://powershell.now.ovh/feed/index.json -Trusted -Priority 10 -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue; Install-PSResource SlurdgeTools -Repository SlurdgeTools

Upgrade

Run the installer again; it always installs the latest version:

irm https://powershell.now.ovh/install.ps1 | iex

Or by hand (elevated, with -Scope AllUsers, if it was installed for all users):

Update-PSResource SlurdgeTools

Then reload it in shells that are already open, or open a new one:

Import-Module SlurdgeTools -Force

Upgrades install side by side. To remove old versions:

Get-InstalledPSResource SlurdgeTools | Sort-Object Version -Descending | Select-Object -Skip 1 | Uninstall-PSResource

Uninstall

Removes every installed version (run elevated if it was installed for all users):

Remove-Module SlurdgeTools -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
Get-InstalledPSResource SlurdgeTools | Uninstall-PSResource

Optionally, forget the feed too:

Unregister-PSResourceRepository SlurdgeTools

One-time setup for Windows PowerShell 5.1

Needed when PSResourceGet is missing. Run in an elevated Windows PowerShell:

Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope LocalMachine -Force   # Windows 10/11 only
Install-PackageProvider -Name NuGet -Force
Install-Module PowerShellGet -AllowClobber -Force
# close and reopen Windows PowerShell (elevated), then:
Install-Module Microsoft.PowerShell.PSResourceGet -Force

If downloads fail with "Could not create SSL/TLS secure channel", run this once and reopen PowerShell:

Set-ItemProperty 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework\v4.0.30319' SchUseStrongCrypto 1 -Type DWord
Set-ItemProperty 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\.NETFramework\v4.0.30319' SchUseStrongCrypto 1 -Type DWord
