2.) Why use PowerShell commands from the Explorer address bar?



Selbst wenn Sie lieber an einer Windows Eingabeaufforderung arbeiten, möchten Sie in einigen Fällen möglicherweise zur PowerShell GUI wechseln. Beispielsweise kann der Quad-Explorer, genauso wie der MS Datei-Explorer effizienter sein, wenn Sie mit einer großen Anzahl von Dateien arbeiten müssen, die Sie nicht einfach mit einem Muster wie *.txt auswählen können. In einem solchen Szenario möchten Sie wahrscheinlich den Datei-Explorer in PowerShell in einem bestimmten Zielordner öffnen.

3.) Weitere Infos zu Explorer Adressleiste und Co.!


In Windows, you can run PowerShell commands directly in the address bar of the standard Windows Explorer using the "shell" protocol, just as in Quad Explorer . 

1. Open Windows Explorer by accessing the folder icon on the taskbar or by pressing Windows + E on your keyboard.

In the address bar at the top, click where the current folder path would normally appear. Type powershell   in the address bar, followed by your desired PowerShell command. For example:

powershell Get-ChildItem C:\Windows

Press Enter to run the command. This will open PowerShell and run the specified command.

Please note that some commands may require administrative privileges and therefore need to run PowerShell as an administrator. In this case, you can open the elevated address bar by typing "powershell Start-Process powershell -Verb runAs" and then run your command.

Remember to be careful when running PowerShell commands, especially if you are not sure what they do. Improper use of PowerShell can cause problems.

Tip: ►►  Use the directory tree in the Explorer address line!





Info:

If you want to open File Explorer from your current location on the command line, you can do so with the following command: "explorer" cmd.exe knows the startup command, which requires a variety of additional optional commands to run a program offers. The next simple command also opens Explorer in the current folder. In PowerShell, the start command exists as an alias of the Start-Process cmdlet. If you pass the name of a directory as an argument, Explorer will open at that location. In the case above, this would be "C:\Windows\System32". However, you can also use another path.

> start explorer.

Questions for this:
  1. I do a lot of administrator tasks, I find that the quickest way to do it is via a PowerShell, but I love to use it in the Windows Explorer detention cell, only I have to mention that I am an MS PowerShell professional and like administrator tasks from the Start the MS File Explorer address bar and I have always wished to start PowerShell commands via the Explorer arrest line. Is that so easy in your Explorer?
  2. I am a PowerShell guru, directly in the Explorer window with a certain folder to open PowerShell, while I was navigating through folders my first thought in Explorer was I can do this in any directory, can I use PowerShell here too?
  3. So above all 4 address bars where I can enter the path, just type in PowerShell and execute it, for example with confirmation with the [Enter] key or somehow otherwise, is that possible?
  4. Is PowerShell also supported here directly in the selected folder, does it work to start, or classic cmd.exe by entering where path is entered?
