The article demonstrates the procedure to install PowerShell on Fedora 39. PowerShell, a powerful task automation framework developed by Microsoft, has become a go-to tool for developers and system administrators. Its robust scripting language and access to COM and WMI offer an integrated environment for managing and automating the administration of Windows systems.

Installation Process

Let’s now dive into the installation process.

Step 1: System Update

Before you install PowerShell, it’s crucial to update your system packages. Open your terminal and run the following commands:

sudo dnf clean all
sudo dnf update

Step 2: Installing PowerShell

Microsoft provides a repository for installing PowerShell on Fedora. To add this repository, open your terminal and type the following command:

sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo https://packages.microsoft.com/config/fedora/39/prod.repo

The GPG key verifies the authenticity of the packages. You can import the key using the following command:

sudo rpm --import https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc

With the Microsoft repository added to your system, you’re now ready to install PowerShell. The DNF package manager simplifies this process with a single command:

sudo dnf install powershell

This command will download and install PowerShell along with any required dependencies.

After the installation is complete, it’s good practice to verify that PowerShell was installed correctly. You can do this by running the following command in your terminal:

pwsh --version

This command should display the PowerShell version information. If you see the version number, congratulations! You’ve successfully installed PowerShell on your Fedora 39 system.

Step 3: Accessing PowerShell

Accessing PowerShell on Fedora 39 is as simple as typing pwsh into your terminal. This command will start a new PowerShell session, and you can begin running PowerShell commands and scripts.

If you no longer need PowerShell on your Fedora 39 system, you can uninstall it by running the following command:

sudo dnf remove powershell

Congratulations! You have successfully installed PowerShell.
