About PowerShell Scripts
PowerShell Scripts is a GitHub repository containing more than 600 free, stand-alone PowerShell scripts (.ps1) for Linux, macOS, and Windows. The scripts are grouped by purpose, including audio and voice, and computer management. The repository's stated uses include command-line work, remote control over SSH, automation at startup, shutdown, login, or logoff, context menu actions, and learning PowerShell. All scripts are in the scripts folder and support Unicode for modern consoles such as Windows Terminal.
Some scripts need administrator rights. The computer management group includes examples such as adding firewall rules, checking Windows system files, and installing WSL, and the listing marks several of these as requiring admin rights. The source excerpt is partial, so it does not cover every script. Pricing is not stated.
