  1. Harm Veenstra on Search your PowerShell Command-Line History and execute one or more entriesNovember 12, 2026

  2. PowerShell is fun :)Search your PowerShell Command-Line History and execute one or more entries on PowerShell Out-ConsoleGridView and F7HistoryNovember 6, 2026

    […] F7History works a bit better, but you can’t select multiple items to execute when you hit Enter. […]
