Volt 23.0.10 has been released ๐ŸŽ‰ which includes the following improvements:

Migrated to .NET 6.0โ€‹

.NET 3.1 End of Supportโ€‹

Volt has been targeting .NET Framework 4.6.2 and .NET Core 3.1 since it became available on December 3, 2019.

.NET Core 3.1 is reaching end of support on December 13, 2022 in line with the .NET and .NET Core release lifecycle and so Volt has been migrated to the latest .NET 6.0 LTS (Long Term Service) release that will reach end of support on November 12, 2024.

Utilising PowerShell 7.xโ€‹

Windows PowerShell 5.1โ€‹

Windows PowerShell ships with the Windows operating system and is utilised for many system administration tasks, but the future of PowerShell on Windows (and macOS and Linux!) is just called ... PowerShell ๐Ÿ˜Ž. The latest version is Windows PowerShell 5.1 and will not receive upgrades from Microsoft although it will contnue to ship with Windows.

PowerShell 7.xโ€‹

PowerShell (without the Windows prefix) is based on the latest versions of .NET that are cross platform. PowerShell 7 installs to a directory separately from Windows PowerShell and this enables you to run PowerShell 7 side-by-side with Windows PowerShell 5.1 that ships with the Windows operating system.
