Windows 10: cleanmgr.exe via Powershell

Hello,
I would like to hear some tips on how to fix the PowerShell script. Generally, it works fine but I want to add something like a timer that I can run a script and it will stop in 15 min anyway! (that the time, when 'clearmgr' usually will complete the task) Why I need that? Cuz I will run it via PDQ Deploy tool for more than 300 computers and it might be stuck sometimes for some reason for an unlimited time so I want to eliminate any freezes or lags.

Please take a look at how to add the correct addition to that script. Or maybe rewrite it and do it differently?

Thank you in advance!

:)

 

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:

 

PowerShell randomly poping-up in tool bar

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.

 

How to change the WinX menu, including Powershell/Powershell (Admin)

This part intrigues me. As suggested earler, please post a screenshot of the error message. Also, please clarify/test the follwoing:

1. Can you start PowerShell from the Start Menu?
2. If you navigate to %localappdata%\Microsoft\Windows\WinX\Group3, does PowerShell launch from the shortcuts there?
3. If #1 works & #2 doesn't, compare (& post) the target text from each shortcuts properties. For the Start Menu shortcut, right-click & select Open file location to navigate to the Start Menu folder.
