I have TC’s build agent installed on Windows 2008 R2 SP1 Core. The server has PowerShell 2.0 installed (double checked, and actually from PS downloaded the TC installation). Looking at some build configuration I see these being incompatible with this agent, because powershell_x86/powershell_x64 is required. I tried deleting build agents dirs to force upgrade, but no luck. Interestingly if I provide powershell_x86, powershell_x86_Path (and for 64bit) variables into config file manually, everything runs fine.

Is there anything I can do to have the build agent find PowerShell automatically? What/where is it looking for it? Maybe the ‘Core’ is problem.

    The problem was, that it needs both MicrosoftWindowsPowerShell (x64) and MicrosoftWindowsPowerShell-WOW64 (x86) (and dependencies), else it’s not able to find it. Probably some registry mapping bitness magic in Windows.
