Ruby PowerShell Windows

Question

When I ran the following in ruby:

`powershell.exe -executionpolicy unrestricted -command get-module -listavailable` 

... the result I get is different than if I just run cmd and execute:

 powershell.exe -executionpolicy unrestricted -command get-module -listavailable 

How can I fix this, so I can give the same result?

Answer 1

Yes. The fix seems to be a syntax alias. Using:

C: /windows/sysnative/windowspowshell/v1.0/powershell.exe

Instead of syswow64 or system32 or none.
