Microsoft have finally released the long-awaited fixed version of WMF5. I personally believe that it’s intolerable to let one’s users wait two months just for this simple fix.
Today, we have republished the Windows Management Framework (WMF) 5.0 RTM packages for Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2012, Windows 2008 R2 SP1, Windows 8.1, and Windows 7 SP1 to Microsoft Download Center. These packages replace previously released WMF 5.0 RTM packages and WMF 5.0 Production Preview packages.
Important Note: For systems running Windows 7 SP1 or Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, you’ll need WMF 4.0 and .NET Framework 4.5 or higher installed to run WMF 5.0.
We want to extend our sincere thanks to the PowerShell Community for your continued patience and support while we were addressing thePSModulePath issue found in the previously released WMF 5.0 RTM packages.
To learn about the new features and improvements in WMF 5.0 RTM, please refer to (and contribute to) the WMF 5.0 release notes.
Please continue to provide feedback via our new UserVoice site.
