That said, since it is a preview version, it is only meant for testing so that the public is ready for any changes that may impact their work before the final version is released. Therefore we strongly recommend you do not install it in any live/production environment. This update brings a plethora of new improvements and fixes to the command-line tool that can be used to run scripts, automate and perform administrative tasks. Note: If you already have a stable version of Windows PowerShell running on your machine, installing the preview version will not affect it, and both could run simultaneously. However, if another preview version of PowerShell is installed, it will automatically be overwritten with the newer version.

Final Thoughts

As we previously highlighted, this is a preview release of the command-line tool, which is why we suggest that you do not install it in a live environment. It is primarily targeted at the developers who need to test their applications beforehand so that when the stable version is released, their products are compatible with one another.
