    I've googled it, searched the forums, but can't find how to see what version of PowerShell I have.   I found "powershell.exe" on my computer in the System32 directory, but in the Details section of the Properties, it says it is version 6.1.7.   As I understand, version 2 is the latest, and still don't know if version 2 works with SQL Server 2008.

    I'm using Windows 7, 32 bit.

    Can someone tell me how to tell what version I have?   Thank you!

    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft forum. This forum focuses on Perfmon, taskmgr, and resmon. I am moving your question to the moderator forum ("Where is the forum for..?"). The owner of the forum will direct you to a right forum.

    Thanks.

    6.1.7 is the build version.

    If you have started PowerShell, enter

    $PSVersionTable.CLRVersion

    to the prompt, then press Enter. Or simply: $PSVersionTable, you will see there are versions of multiple things.

    By the way, there is a Windows Powershell forum, if you would like to ask further questions about PowerShell.
