WinFormPS is a PowerShell module to manage and interact with Windows Forms (WinForms) Controls.
If you are among those creating PowerShell Graphical User Interface using tools such as SAPIEN PowerShell Studio, you will realize that you need to dive a lot into the controls and MSDN to find the accurate methods or properties to perform the actions you want.
The goal of this module is to resolve that issue and make it simpler by using a set of functions to control WinForms Controls.

``` powershell
Install-Module -name WinFormPS
```
