Manage Profiles Dialog
This dialog allows you to manage individual profiles (including PowerShell Core profiles).

- Edit - Opens the selected profile in the editor.
- Delete - Deletes the selected profile. The deleted profile is moved to the Recycle bin.
- Status - Displays the status of the module:
- Enabled – The profile exists.
- Disabled –The profile exists, but is disabled.
- Missing – The profile does not exist.
- Enabled - This check box allows you to quickly enable or disable the existing profile.
Profile Template
You can create a profile by selecting the new profile template. When you select the profile template, you will be prompted to specify the profile location. The dialog will list all the locations with missing profiles. Select a profile to create the file at the specified location. Choose the (Custom Location) option to create an unsaved ps1 profile. Create your own profile ps1 template by adding the “profile” tag. This will trigger PowerShell Studio to display the Select Profile to Create dialog whenever the template is selected.
Notifications
Adds a new notification icon to PowerShell Studio. Now displays a notification when there is a software update available, or when your subscription is about to expire. Access the notifications, by clicking the notification flag icon.
Feedback Menu
New feedback menu added to the ribbon:
- Report a Problem - This option opens the product-specific forum where you can report a problem with the software or ask product-specific questions.
- Provide a Suggestion - This option opens the Feature Request page on the SAPIEN website. Use this option to file a feature request.
WebBrowser Control – New Helper Function
A new helper function Set-WebBrowserEmulation has been added which is automatically inserted when you add a WebBrowser control in the designer. This function will set the Internet Explorer emulation mode for the running executable. This allows the WebBrowser control to support newer html features and improves compatibility with modern websites. Also includes a new snippet for the function (shortcut: setWebBrowserEmulation).
New Theme – Microsoft Office 2019 Colorful
Adds a new theme to PowerShell Studio: Office 2019 Colorful.
