I installed PowerShell Studio 2023 on my new lap with PowerShell 7.3.7 installed. I get an error that this version of PowerShell is not supported by PowerShell Studio. Is there a list of supported PowerShell Core versions? When will PowerSHell 7.3.7 be supported?
Thank you,
Charles

Re: PowerShell Studio 2023 and PowerShell 7.3.7
Windows PowerShell 5.x is supported. PowerShell 7.0 to 7.3.6 are currently supported.
7.0 and 7.1 will be deprecated soon though.
7.3.7 was released on the 18th of September, so two days ago. It usually takes us a few days after a new version was released to update everything and funnel it though QA.
Depending on what else is in the pipeline that can take a few days more on occasion.
Despite the message, PowerShell Studio has a built in fall back version of PowerShell, currently 7.3.6, it will use in such a case.
Executables built for 7.3.x should in theory run fine on the next version or two but that really depends on what Microsoft changes.
Microsoft chose to default Powershell to being updated by Windows Update. While this is of course your choice to update right away whenever a new build is out,
our experience suggests to not enable that and always give it a week or so. Unless something in the update is mission critical for you, it should not make much of a difference.
Last but not least, PowerShell Studio and PrimalScript come with a PowerShell Version Select tool that makes it very easy and quick to switch between versions.
I hope this answers your questions.
