Product, version and build: PowerShell Studio 5.5.154
32 or 64 bit version of product: x64
Operating system: Windows

Hello community,
I installed PowerShell Core 6.1.0 not via the installer but via unpack the zip file in a directory of my choice. In PowerShell Studio I add a console entry and restart PowerShell Studio. After this step I expect to see a PowerShell Core entry in the platform list but nothing happens. How is it possible to add a corresponding entry here?
Thanks for hints and tips.
Cheers
Stefan

In order to see PowerShell Core under the platform ribbon menu it need to be install it to the default installation location given by Microsoft. So, when leaving it to default installation then it will be added automatically to the "Options" Console list.

Then, any update to PowerShell Core, PowerShell Studio can be updated automatically by pressing the "Reset" button to update the console command line.

So, adding it to the "Options" console list will not added to the Platform menu neither.
