How do I update Cmder to use PowerShell Core?

Use

*pwsh -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -NoLogo -NoProfile -NoExit -Command "Invoke-Expression '. ''%ConEmuDir%\..\profile.ps1'''"

enter image description here


I currently use Cmder for this, which is based upon ConEmu. There are already two PowerShell tasks and I assume that I can update them to point to my local install of PowerShell Core (in C:\Program Files\PowerShell\6.0.0).

You are using the wrong executable.

The binary name for PowerShell Core has been changed from powershell(.exe) to pwsh(.exe). This change provides a deterministic way for users to run PowerShell Core on machines to support side-by-side Windows PowerShell and PowerShell Core installations. pwsh is also much shorter and easier to type.

Additionally

You can launch PowerShell via the Start Menu or $env:ProgramFiles\PowerShell\pwsh.exe
