# 🎨 PowerShell Profile (Pretty PowerShell)

A stylish and functional PowerShell profile that looks and feels almost as good as a Linux terminal.

## ⚡ One Line Install (Elevated PowerShell Recommended)

Execute the following command in an elevated PowerShell window to install the PowerShell profile:

```

irm "https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/powershell-profile/raw/main/setup.ps1" | iex

```

## 🛠️ Fix the Missing Font

After running the script, you'll have two options for installing a font patched to support icons in PowerShell:

### 1) You will find a downloaded `cove.zip` file in the folder you executed the script from. Follow these steps to install the patched `Caskaydia Cove` nerd font family:

1. Extract the `cove.zip` file.

2. Locate and install the nerd fonts.

### 2) With `oh-my-posh` (loaded automatically through the PowerShell profile script hosted on this repo):

1. Run the command `oh-my-posh font install`

2. A list of Nerd Fonts will appear like so:


PS> oh-my-posh font install


   Select font

  > 0xProto

    3270

    Agave

    AnonymousPro

    Arimo

    AurulentSansMono

    BigBlueTerminal

    BitstreamVeraSansMono

    •••••••••

    ↑/k up • ↓/j down • q quit • ? more

3. With the up/down arrow keys, select the font you would like to install and press ENTER

4. DONE!

   

## Customize this profile


**Do not make any changes to the `Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1` file**, since it's hashed and automatically overwritten by any commits to this repository.

After the profile is installed and active, run the `Edit-Profile` function to create a separate profile file for your current user. Make any changes and customizations in this new file named `profile.ps1`.

Now, enjoy your enhanced and stylish PowerShell experience! 🚀
