Using the PowerShell WinGet module

In March 2023, I wrote a blog post about the Preview version of the WinGet module. Since then, it has undergone many updates, and in this (long) blog post, I will show you how to use Microsoft.WinGet.client PowerShell Module.

Use PowerShell to check if (shortened) URL link is safe

It just happens a lot: you receive a (shortened) URL and are unsure if it's safe to open. Sometimes, I open it in Windows Sandbox or use the urlscan.io website. In this blog post, I will show you how you can automate the check of a URL and see if it's safe or not 🙂

PowerShell turned 18 years old!

Yesterday, November 14th, 2024, PowerShell turned 18 years old. 🙂 I started using it after the first public beta version (“Monad”) in 2005, and I was immediately hooked! In this blog post, I will discuss the session I attended yesterday, where we celebrated PowerShell’s 18th birthday and my personal PowerShell history.
