get-installedapplication throws error

The Toolkit General Discussion
1

I am new to PS and the PSADTK.

When try to use Get-InstalledApplication, it just throws an error, as seen below. This happens on all of the computers i have tried it on thus far.

Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

Get-InstalledApplication : The term ‘Get-InstalledApplication’ is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function,
script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is
correct and try again.
At line:1 char:1

  • Get-InstalledApplication -name ‘google chrome’
  •   + CategoryInfo          : ObjectNotFound: (Get-InstalledApplication:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
  + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException

It looks like you are not using the Deploy-Application.ps1 template. Since the Get-InstalledApplication cmdlet is in the first line of your script, the toolkit has not been dot-sourced and thus the cmdlet is not recognized. Please refer to the documentation that comes with the toolkit or alternatively read some of the online tutorials, like this one: https://replicajunction.github.io/tag/psadt/
