Notes
ServerManager module
This module has some minor compatibility issues with formatted output in PowerShell 7. For example,
the Get-WindowsFeature cmdlet returns the proper object with all properties, but the default
display formatting makes some properties appear to be empty. The actual values are available in the
object properties using Select-Object or by direct member access.
