Where does Windows PowerShell set $profile?

Question

I would like to move my default \"My Documents\\WindowsPowerShell\" folder. However, when I try this, PowerShell of course can\'t find $profile. Is there a file or something

Answer 1

You could use junction.exe from Sysinternals to make the WindowsPowershell directory a symbolic link to another location (but not a network drive).

You could do this if you wanted to store the profile scripts at C:\POSH

junction.exe "$HOME\Documents\WindowsPowerShell" 'C:\POSH'
