Microsoft has released Windows Terminal version 1.23 as a stable update, and version 1.24 as the latest preview, both bringing major improvements to the popular command-line tool. These versions introduce a completely new windowing architecture, expanded settings in the user interface, and other powerful enhancements for productivity and customization. In this article, we’ll explore what’s new in these updates and to how to install the latest stable and preview builds through Microsoft Store, winget, choco, and scoop.

The key new feature in the just-released AI Shell Preview 6 is run_command_in_terminal, among several new built-in tools that allow the AI model to run commands and review outputs directly in your PowerShell terminal. Additionally, AI Shell now supports local and remote MCP servers, transforming it into a versatile AI assistant across Windows, Mac, and Linux.

If you are working with PowerShell, you will often face the question: "Under which user is my script running?" In other words, you want to know who is logged in. Many admins use the whoami command on the Command Prompt (cmd). However, PowerShell provides native alternatives to whoami that give you the username and domain.

The Network File System (NFS) is a widely used file-sharing protocol in Linux environments. However, many Windows administrators may not know you can mount an NFS share easily on Windows 11 and Windows Server. This guide shows you step-by-step instructions on activating NFS for Windows and mounting a share using PowerShell.

Migrating a Hyper-V host from Windows Server 2019 Core to Windows Server 2025 requires attention beyond just the virtual machines. The host's configuration is equally essential and includes network cards, vSwitches, and default paths, all of which need to be transferred accurately. Using Windows PowerShell, you can export key settings and restore them on a new server.

Microsoft has released AI Shell v1.0.0‑preview.5, which provides a Windows-only security patch, while Preview 4 delivered substantial improvements—enhanced macOS side‑pane support in iTerm2, Entra ID authentication, expanded Invoke‑AIShell functionality (with new -PostCode, -CopyCode, and -Exit flags)—all based on community feedback to improve workflows across Azure OpenAI, macOS, and PowerShell. This article also explains how to install Microsoft AI Shell on macOS.

A new study by METR got a lot of attention online. It claims that developers often overestimate the productivity boost from AI tools. In a coding test, the researchers found that AI caused a 19% "slowdown" for developers. In my opinion, it's not AI coding that's overhyped, but rather the study's findings.

La prochaine version de Windows 11 sera l'occasion pour Microsoft de faire du tri : PowerShell 2.0 sera supprimé ! Qu'est-ce que ça change ?

The post Windows 11 : Microsoft poursuit son nettoyage et va supprimer PowerShell 2.0 first appeared on IT-Connect.

Google's new Gemini CLI allows up to 60 model requests per minute and 1,000 daily requests. Professional developers might hit these limits quickly, but many IT admins will find the free plan sufficient. Compared to Anthropic Claude Code and OpenAI Codex CLI, I find Google's open-source AI-powered terminal more useful for the AI-augmented admin.

The VS Code May 2025 update (version 1.101), released a few days ago, introduces a range of new features primarily focused on GitHub Copilot. My favorite addition is the custom chat mode, which lets you create a personalized mode alongside the built-in options: Ask, Edit, and Agent. In this post, I'll also explore the new chat tool sets and the undoing edits feature. While the Simple Browser feature was included in the previous release, it deserves discussion. Furthermore, I will briefly summarize the MCP enhancements.

The MCP catalog in Docker Desktop has been available for a couple of weeks now. However, MCP support only works properly in the just-released Docker Desktop 4.42. The Docker Desktop MCP server catalog significantly simplifies installing MCP servers for any MCP client. I tested it with Gordon (Docker Desktop chatbot), Anthropic Claude Desktop, and VS Code GitHub Copilot on macOS, but the process should be identical on Windows.

Warp, the top terminal app with AI support, has introduced new features in its GA release, including MCP support and Refine for AI responses. The Preview release now allows image uploads and the saving of reusable AI prompts. I also found a few new features that weren’t mentioned in the Launch Log 3 post.

Microsoft. has recently launched Edit, a lightweight terminal editor for Windows and Linux. It revives the spirit of the MS-DOS Editor, which debuted in 1991 as a full-screen text editor for DOS and early Windows systems. Edit eliminates the need to leave the terminal to edit files. While Edit doesn't feature a traditional GUI, it supports tab management and can be navigated using a mouse. On Linux, the open-source tool can be seen as an alternative to nano.

Je suis tombé sur une vidéo de la chaine IT-Connect qui traite du déploiement de Windows 11 afin de connaître le pourcentage de machines éligibles et compatibles avec l'OS (TPM, génération de  processeur, etc.).

Et dans cette vidéo il fait remonter le résultat d'un script d'ouverture de session dans les attributs AD des comptes ordinateurs.

Je trouve ça très malin, j'imagine des cas d'utilisation pour avoir de la remontée d'information quand on ne dispose pas d'une gestion centralisée (MEMCM, inventaire, etc).
