Note that some Windows PowerShell modules (like CDXML based) will work fine with PowerShell Core 6, but others may not be fully compatible\n- Enable using implicit remoting to utilize Windows PowerShell cmdlets from PowerShell Core 6 for modules that are not compatible directly\n\n## PowerShell 7\n\nNote that there is a planned [feature](https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell-RFC/pull/226) in PowerShell 7 to include\nthe capabilities of this module as part of the engine making this module unnecessary for PowerShell 7.\nPlease review that RFC and add your feedback.\n\n## Installation\n\nThe WindowsCompatibility Module is available in the [PowerShell Gallery][PSGallery].\nTo install the module, run the following from PowerShell:\n\n```powershell\nInstall-Module WindowsCompatibility -Scope CurrentUser\n```\n\n[PSGallery]: https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/WindowsCompatibility/\n\n## Quick Start\n\nViewing the local computer's Event Log from PowerShell Core:\n\n```powershell\nImport-WinModule Microsoft.PowerShell.Management\nGet-EventLog -Newest 5 -LogName \"Application\"\n```\n\nView the Event Log on a remote computer from PowerShell Core:\n\n```powershell\n$Credential = Get-Credential\nInitialize-WinSession -ComputerName SQLSERVER01 -Credential $Credential\nImport-WinModule Microsoft.PowerShell.Management\nGet-EventLog -Newest 5 -LogName \"Application\"\n```\n\nView more in the [Quick Start Guide][QuickStart].\n\n[QuickStart]: ./docs/QuickStart.md\n\n## Documentation\n\nThe project documentation is located in the [docs][ProjectDocs] directory.\n\n[ProjectDocs]: ./docs/\n\n## Maintainers\n\n- Mark Kraus ([markekraus](https://github.com/markekraus))\n- Steve Lee ([stevel-msft](https://github.com/stevel-msft))\n- Bruce Payette ([brucepay](https://github.com/brucepay))\n","funding_links":[],"categories":[],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpowershell%2Fwindowscompatibility","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fpowershell%2Fwindowscompatibility","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpowershell%2Fwindowscompatibility/lists"}
