PowerShell TroubleShooting: Few Commands are not working
One of my teammates asked why a few commands are not working in PowerShell?
We tried diskpart.exe and ended up with this error:
diskpart.exe
Cannot start "diskpart.exe". Interactive console applications are not supported.
To run the application, use the Start-Process cmdlet or use "Start PowerShell.exe" from the File menu.
To view/modify the list of blocked console applications, use $psUnsupportedConsoleApplications, or consult online help.

It's good. Don't worry about it. Try in Windows PowerShell ConsoleHost. It will work.
But why not from ISE?
Explanation
$psUnsupportedConsoleApplications
Results:
wmic
wmic.exe
cmd
cmd.exe
diskpart
diskpart.exe
edit.com
netsh
netsh.exe
nslookup
nslookup.exe
powershell

The above commands will not work as expected. Please be aware of it and do PowerShell :)
