powershell terminal sometimes need a C/R for output

Hi,

Sometimes when running a PS script which has output, it hangs until I hit an
enter key. There is no requirement for input but it just waits. Then when I
hit enter, all output comes out. Has anyone experienced this? The script
simplies just does a mbsacli to a server to query security patches.

Thanks in advance,

i might be leading you down the wrong path, but this could be the
problem

when doing multiple line script/commands whether by typing in, or copy
paste.. if powershell knows that it isn't complete, rather than trying
to run it, it will prompt with >> so you can type in more.. so you
simply have to do another enter to tell powershell that you are done.
