While going through the book “Beginning Sharepoint 2010 Administration”, the author was discussing on how to prepare for SharePoint 2010 server installation on win2008 R2 server. In that one of the step being uninstalling powershell 1.0, I don’t understand the reason behind this.
Please help me to understand why one should uninstall this?
Thanks in advance.
PowerShell V1.0 was present on Windows Server 2008.
On Windows server 2008 R2 PowerShell 2.0 is natively present, so no need to upgrade it. You can refer to these StackOverflow articles:
