Thanks for the heads up! Though I'm not an IT guy, I'm a SW dev and use git on the command line with PowerShell 7 and the nifty posh-git module.
Anyway, a while back, MS added the option to allow updating PowerShell from Windows Update. For a while, it didn't show up there, even when a new version was available. It eventually showed up, so I decided to update PowerShell using this capability. I had previously installed it using the github MSI package, and during the install, I always chose the option to have an "open here" item in the File Explorer context menu. On two machines, I updated PowerShell from Windows Update, and on both of them, it ignored these previous options, leaving me with no File Explorer context menu anymore. The only way I could figure out to fix it was to uninstall it, then reinstall from the github MSI package again. So now I never use Windows Update to update it, but instead just use the github MSI package like I was doing before. I now disable the option to allow updating it from Windows Update. I just check this forum regularly for updates.
