What's new in Windows Management Framework 5.0 Production Preview?
Windows Management Framework (WMF) 5.0 Production Preview introducing new and exciting management technologies. WMF 5.0 Production Preview differs from older previews of WMF 5.0 in the following ways:
- It is fully supported until 90 days after WMF 5.0 RTM. By fully supported, we mean we will investigate production-blocking issues, and provide workarounds or updates as necessary.
- All features in the Production Preview are production-ready. No experimental features are in this package.
This release includes new features and functionality in Windows Management Framework 5.0, including the following:
- Windows PowerShell 5.0
- Windows PowerShell Integrated Scripting Environment
- Windows PowerShell Desired State Configuration
- Network Switch Cmdlets
- Package Management
- Software Inventory Logging
Windows Management Framework 5.0 makes updated management functionality available for installation on Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2012, Windows 2008 R2 SP1, Windows 8.1, and Windows 7 SP1.
