Release 7.3.0 shows some MAJOR improvements in startup time.On my windows x64 dev machine (normally quite fast), release v7.2.x took upwards of 2000-3000ms at startup, just to get to the first paint. (no screenshot available sorry). Beta-release v7.3.0-rc.1 ran significantly faster than the previous version (v7.2.7 stable), and it great to see that this finally made it to stable for PS7 At the end of the day, you can expect <1000ms startup times (tested on x64 windows), depending on your startup scripts (I have a generous amount running at startup)

[That comment went to the wrong place. Repost.] Ouch. Then the only advice I can give is the usual boilerplate that we are all thoroughly tired of: Try safe mode, turn off, better yet, uninstall, your antivirus software, update your drivers, disconnect all nonessential devices, etc. |

@chrullrich, I'll stay with 7.2.7 for now then. There is no rush here. I am sure the bug will pop up eventually as we have a large userbase (however not many of us dare to speak publicly, especially of troubles). Thank you for paying attention! |

Windows 7 is not a supported OS for PowerShell 7 |

I'm saying you are highly unlikely to get any real support because you are running on an outdated os that technically was never a supported os for PowerShell 7 to run on. |

Why did you remove the "Type 'help' to get help" welcome message and docs link? 😿 |

There was a discussion about "why pwsh creates this header while others (bash) do not". |

Some (like bash) don't, others (like python) do. Still think it was more friendly, especially for first-time users. |

Just download the file for your system (in your preferred format, if there is more than one). There are installation instructions in the Get PowerShell section of https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell#readme |

Linux user here...just ran the bash script for Evaluation-STIP_Bash.sh in the correct context and received an error: Line 197 Permission denied for powershell/pwsh. Since I'm running in a disconnected virtual environment, I had downloaded the file "Powershell-7.30-linux-x64.tar.gz', renamed it to "powershell.tar.gz", placed it in the Evaluate-STIG directory, and ran Evaluate-STIG_Bash.sh as sudo bash. Then I su - to root and tried it again. No joy. Is there a permissions problem within the compressed file? Thoughts? Thanks in advance. |

Will Microsoft Update update v7.2.7 to v7.3.0? I've noticed that Microsoft Update has been updating the v7.2.x series a week or so after release, but it's been over a month now, and v7.2.7 is still the installed version. So do I have to manually update to v7.3.0? Thanks! |

Microsoft update is always a little behind the times of releases that you could otherwise manually install. So you can manually update or wait for it to come around though it may have been temp blocked due to some additional issues that the team has found since it's release |

Thanks @kilasuit! I just got v7.2.8 with the automatic updates, so it looks like I'll have to manually install the v7.3.x series if I want it.
