Windows 10: Powershell // Initialisation Error

Hi all,


don´t know whether i chose the right Category.....


tried to open my Powershell today and it closes immediately after start..... To get more Information i opended cmd and typed Powershell what gave me the following Error:


Die Shell kann nicht gestartet werden. Fehler bei der Initialisierung:
Der Typeninitialisierer für "System.Management.Automation.LanguagePrimitives" hat eine Ausnahme verursacht.


Because it´s in german i try to translate:


The Shell could not be opened. Failure during Initialisation.

The Typeinitializer for "System.Management.Automation.LanguagePrimitives" has caused an Exception.



System is Windows 10 x64.


Couldn´t find help on the Internet. Has anybody an idea what to do? I miss my Powershell so bad

PowerShell instead of Commandline in Creators Update

Interestingly enough my personal laptop just got the update...and still has Command Prompt listed, not PowerShell...

Edit: Not that it matters...I use both regularly. *Toast :toast:

Hello,

Just to verify, do you have any scheduled tasks that uses Powershell? Scheduled tasks makes Powershell window appear periodically on your computer, therefore we suggest that you check the Task Scheduler. Here are the steps:

• Click on Start.
• In the search bar, type Task Scheduler and click on
  
  Task Scheduler in the results.
• Under Active Tasks, check for any tasks that use Powershell and the scheduled time.

If the issue still persist, we suggest that you run a Windows Defender scan to see if it will pick up any malware that the first scan missed.

Let us know the outcome.
