{% hint style="info" %}
 Windows 10 already shipped with PowerShell 5.1 so everything works out of the box.

```text
$PSVersionTable.PSVersion.Major
```

## Basic usage

There are 2 ways to input your script:

#### 1. Uses script set in `Line` options:

```text
[PSRM]
Measure = Plugin
Plugin = PowershellRM
Line  = Get-Process |
Line2 = Where-Object {$_.ProcessName -eq "explorer"} |
Line3 = Select -ExpandProperty "Path"
```

Last output object will be this measure value.

#### 2. Uses a PowerShell script file

```text
[PSRM]
Measure = Plugin
Plugin = PowershellRM
ScriptFile = myScript.ps1
```

In this script file, you need to define function `Update` with no parameter.  
`Update` function is called every time skin updating and whatever it returning will be this measure value.
