Last year, I wrote a blog post about updating your modules to the latest version, including removing the older versions here. This blog post will show you how to check for updated modules.

Using Windows PowerShell Web Access
It was first introduced in Windows Server 2012, and back then, I was amazed by it, really liked it, and... It's still there, even in Windows Server 2022. I will show you what it is and how it works in this blog post.
Retrieve Intune Device Primary User and all users ever logged on to that device
One of our customers wanted to know per device which the real Primary User was and the user logon date of every user that used that device. (They have some shared devices.) In this blog post, I will show you how to retrieve that information from Intune and export it.
Use PowerShell to change the color of your Govee lamp
I recently bought a Govee lamp for my desk, which I can control using my Google Home Assistant. But... It also has API support. 🙂 In this blog post, I will show you how to control it using PowerShell in a Function to turn it Red, Orange, or Green so you can use it for a visual outcome of your PowerShell script.
Retrieve local and remote PowerShell logs
There are a few PowerShell EventLogs and some files containing your PowerShell history and the commands, script blocks, etc., that you have used. This can be very helpful if your computer or servers are hacked at your office. Or, if you just want to check things 😉 In this blog post, I will show you how to retrieve all those events locally and remotely and save those in an Excel sheet.
Three ways to start Visual Studio Code
You can install Visual Studio code on your device (Windows/Mac/Linux), but you can also use it from within your browser. In this blog post, I will show three ways to start your Visual Studio Code session.
Recent podcasts I was a guest on
I listen to podcasts often, but I also view a lot on YouTube or other channels... But being in one, that's something else 🙂 In this blog post, I will post the ones I was in this year. They are all PowerShell related, but I guess you already knew that 😀
Things I use most in my PowerShell scripts
Looking back at the scripts I created the last year, certain things always come back in most of them. In this blog post, I will show you a few and explain them.
PowerShell Out-ConsoleGridView and F7History
I saw these two console tools for PowerShell in my newsfeed, and I like them 🙂 This blog post will show you what they are and how they work.
Retrieve synopsis and help URLs for all PowerShell cmdlets/functions in your Modules
Sometimes you search for cmdlets in your Modules and don't know what they do. You can use Get-Help *something* to find them and Get-Help afterward for more information on those results. That or using Google for more information... In this blog post, I will show you a way to create a report with all that information in one overview 🙂
