Compatibility

As of 2021-08-16, confirmed working on Windows builds as recent as 21H1 (19043.1165).

Changelog

• Changed global hotkey to Win + N, due to a recent Insider build of Windows 10 stealing the Win + F shortcut.
• Added the ability for the hotkey to be overridden via the command-line - pass in an enum value from the Keys enumeration as the only command-line argument, for example: PSRunner.exe Y will use the Win + Y binding instead of the default.
• If no command is entered (the command box is left empty), a new, empty PowerShell session will be opened.

PSWrap

A second project is included in the solution called "PSWrap". This small executable is a non-interactive wrapper for PowerShell. It passes all command-line arguments to powershell.exe, but will hide the window completely, enabling you to run PowerShell commands without a window appearing or flashing on-screen. This is especially useful when using PowerShell for scheduled tasks.
