Limitations of using PowerShell scripts
- While PowerShell offers many built-in cmdlets, some tasks might require third-party modules or libraries, which can introduce complexities and dependencies.
- Generating comprehensive reports and changes may require additional scripting effort or third-party tools.
- Manual scripting increases the chances of errors, potentially leading to misconfigurations or non-functional outcomes.
- As scripts evolve or when system requirements change, maintaining the code can become a significant challenge. Updates, bug fixes, and enhancements often require a deep understanding of the script's structure and logic.
