Can't build exe for Console Mode

Hi all

I have created a GUI with PowerShell Studio 2016, then I created an *.exe from it in "console mode".
So I saw everything in the console.

We upgraded to PowerShell Studio 2019 and now I don't see this option anymore.
I can build it only for "silent" mode. How can I set this to "console mode" again?

In the past you could set this with this dropdown field:

At the moment I only see this:

Infos:
OS: Windows Server 2016 (x64)
PowerShell Studio: PowerShell Studio 2019 (Version 5.6.159) x64



Thank you for your help
Roger

It appears that you are missing some script engines. To check if the files are missing, you can go to and compare with with what engines you can see from the Script Packager Dialog to whats in the folder:
C:\Program Files\SAPIEN Technologies, Inc\PowerShell Studio 2019\ScriptEngines

If the files are missing, the easiest solution to this would be to uninstall then reinstall PowerShell Studio.

If the files are not missing, please check with your Windows Defender or other security as the script engines can throw a false positive and be blocked on your machine.

Thank you very much, this was indeed the problem :)
I had to reinstall PowerShell Studio and then all different Script Engines appeared again.
