Use “Environment” Class Properties Instead of “env:” Drive
Environment variables are different between the different operating systems. All of them have

Even if you’re not attending Summit, these challenges are a great thing to jump into. They’re a fun chance to flex your PowerShell sk1llz, and the official Iron Scripter competition permits remote assistance to each of our three factions - so you can get in on the action from afar!
We suggest using tags #battlefaction, #daybreakfaction, and #flawlessfaction, and #ironscripter2019 to hook up with fellow coders on social media. Visit the main Iron Scripter website to learn more.
Topics include adrenaline for your AKS deployments, Azure Pipelines, Universal Dashboard, and more.
