Description:

The add-PSSnapIn Cmdlet adds one or more PSSnapIns to the current Ps console. After adding a PSSnapIn to the current console, the associated cmdlets can be run within the current console. Be aware that only the in-memory console information is updated. The corresponding console file is not updated. Use the export-console Cmdlet to reuse the console following the current session. The Add-PSSnapIn Cmdlet runs a version check test on the PSSnapIns before loading them in the current console. An error message is displayed if a PSSnapIn cannot be added. Loaded PSSnapIns can be saved in a console file by using the export-console Cmdlet. The current console file name is available in the read-only $console environment variable.
