    $host.ui.PromptForCredential

    Post by scsr_1 »

    Problem discovered when updating to PFv2.0.15 from PFv2.0.8.The following code correctly prompts for credentials (with the appropriate heading) when the code is exported to exe in v2.0.8.Code snippet:$initAnswerAS = "Enter your App_Support credentials."$global:credential = $host.ui.PromptForCredential("AppSupport Credentials", "$initAnswerAS", "", "")This exact code (when exported to exe in v2.0.14 or v2.0..15) does not show the cred box correctly. Instead, it shows a generic credential box, as if you ran "get-credential.")Thank you!-Josh MiddlebrooksBlueCross BlueShield of TN

    The new host is using the built in PowerShell Credential Dialog. It seems there were requests from multiple user in regards to changing the previous dialog. I will file a feature request to add an option for a customizable dialog. David
