A Powershell profile is a .ps1 file, which does not exist by default but is expected at C:\Users\<username>\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1, is a file that is “sourced”/loaded each time a Powershell session is opened. You can use a profile to customize your Powershell session. Functions declared in your profile are accessible to your whole session. You can set variables with default values, customize your session’s colors (by editing a function Prompt {} section), split behavior between regular/elevated prompts, and more.
At the top of your Powershell script, below your docstring, you can declare param() to enable passing -Args to your script, our switches.
```powershell title=”Example params()” linenums=”1” <# Description: Example script with params
Usage:
... #>
param( ## Enable transcription, like ~/.bashhistory [bool]$Transcript = $True, [bool]$ClearNewSession = $True ) ```
