Microsoft has released PowerShell versions 7.6.7, 7.5.12, and 7.4.21, which include two shared fixes related to the handling of a corrupt configuration file and a session-restriction check for the Show-Command cmdlet. However, the pressing issue is that versions 7.4 and 7.5 will lose all support, including security updates, on November 10, 2026, making it critical for users to migrate to version 7.6 LTS, supported until November 2028. The updates are considered routine, with no significant security implications or extensions of support, and mainly address minor functionality improvements. Users are advised to upgrade before the deadline, and the easiest method is through WinGet, while ensuring they check their installation type and verify updates post-installation
Microsoft Ships PowerShell 7.6.7, 7.5.12 and 7.4.21 as 7.4 and 7.5 Lose Support November 10
Microsoft released PowerShell 7.6.7, 7.5.12, and 7.4.21, each carrying just two shared fixes: better handling of a corrupt powershell.config.json file and a session-restriction check for Show-Command. The real stakes are the deadline, though. Both 7.4 (LTS) and 7.5 lose all support, including security updates, on November 10, 2026, less than four weeks out. Microsoft says these are routine servicing patches with no CVE and no extension of support, leaving 7.6 LTS (good until November 2028) as the obvious migration target.
