Windows 10: Getting error that gwmi is not recognised as a name of a cmdlet in powershell 7 windows 11

This is on my Windows 11 Laptop on powershell 7. Using this command since I need to do this for some troubleshooting.

:)

 

powershell "Get-Help : Unable to find type [uint8]"

Thanks for your feedback. get-help cmdlet cannot provide you information for Get-DOPercentageMaxBackgroundBandwidth cmdlet because this not a Microsoft powershell command.

PowerShell Module Browser will provides you information for every Microsoft cmdlet and your suggested cmdlets are not listed.

Those cmdlets are not part of Windows Pro.

 

PowerShell cmdlet to manage audio devices

Hi,

I would love to see even more PowerShell cmdlets that let you manage the native settings in Windows 10.

I have two topics I would appreciate if someone from Microsoft could shed some light on

• Is there a long term goal to release PowerShell cmdlets for all settings you can configure in the Windows 10 GUI/Control panel?
  
• It would be great to get native PowerShell cmdlet to managing audio/recording devices. To be able to select/change the default playback and recording devices could be of big help in an enterprise environment. One example could be to make sure the correct
  speaker and mic are selected when running a video conference system based on Windows 10.

Are the above topics something that are planned for future Windows 10 releases?

Need to repair the windows powershell 5.1 to fix basic cmdlets that were deleted accidently

I am using Windows 10 Enterprise Version 1909 (OS Build 18363.1916) with per-installed Windows PowerShell.

> $PSVersionTable

Name Value
---- -----
PSVersion 5.1.18362.1801
PSEdition Desktop
PSCompatibleVersions {1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0...}
BuildVersion 10.0.18362.1801
CLRVersion 4.0.30319.42000
WSManStackVersion 3.0
PSRemotingProtocolVersion 2.3
SerializationVersion 1.1.0.1

I accidentally deleted some folders for cmdlet from inbuilt PowerShell.

Now when I run Install-Module or any other package management related cmdlet, I get error that it is not a recognized cmdlet.

I have tried removing PowerShell engine from windows optional features, restarting system and then reinstalling it again, with no luck.

Even found some community portal suggesting to remove .Net framework and reinstall, which is not working either.

I already have PowerShell Core installed and running. I would like to have both of them working simultaneously.

Is there any other way to fix Windows PowerShell 5.1?
