Show Command Prompt or Windows PowerShell on Win+X menu in Windows 10

Thank you, Shawn! If I did that, could I:
1. Remove the current Powershell items from the Win+X menu, AND
2. Have &A be the hotkey for the new Powershell
i.e. I currently have: Win+X,A brings up Powershell.

You should be able to, but I haven't tested it.

Hi Again:
Thank you very much! Partial success. I was able to add the Powershell 7 to the Win+X menu. I named the shortcut "PowerShell 7 as &Admin" & it works. The only thing I'd like to do is remove the underlined A from the Command Prompt (Admin) because with 2 underlined "A"s, it will only select an item. Is that possible? [I suppose if it's not possible, I can rename my shortcut so another letter is underlined, but A=Admin seems more natural. 😏]

I don't think there's any other way than to change the letter.

No problem. I just changed the shortcut name to PowerShell 7 as Admin&X. Works like a charm.
Thank you very much!!
