WindowsCompatibility

1.0.0-rc1

This module provides compatibility utilities that allow PowerShell Core sessions to
invoke commands that are only available in Windows PowerShell. These utilities help you
to discover available modules, import those modules through proxies and then use the module
commands much as if they were native to PowerShell Core.

Minimum PowerShell version
