Vista - get-hotfix return 'The term 'get-hotfix' is not recognized'

Hi all,

I just installed PowerShell and .NET Framwork on my computer windows xp
professionnal edition Service Pack 3.

So when i try to run the cmdlet get-hotfix powershell answer me 'The term
'get-hotfix' is not recognized'.

must install additional components?
What should I do?


sorry for the mistakes of English, i'm french ;-)
Thanks

Lyes

And, if you don't want to install CTP3, for now you could use the following
WMI command in PS to get the hotfix listings:

get-wmiobject Win32_QuickFixEngineering

Mmm since this is the year of data parsing and charting
(and yes Regex is also included), then perhaps a very
useful but different way.
FYI

One can also get this information
from the registry from perhaps any
Windows process, even from the
Windows admin's .NET automation
tool, powershell.exe, by automating
at the command line,
or via COM ways,
or via .NET ways,
Microsoft's IIS's (local and remote)
data parsing tool,
Log Parser too!

LogParser.exe -h -i:REG

Input format: REG (Registry properties)
Returns properties of registry keys and values

Perhaps after all these years,
_any_ powershell.exe user
should be able to help one
with data parsing and even
with charting by automating
Log Parser!

Mmm learn one Windows based tool
for the answer to many questions!

As always enjoy the automation
of tools within powershell.exe!
