How to open Powershell Console Window from Powershell

Question

I am writing a script to use multiple plink (PuTTY) sessions as a Windows version of clusterssh. I am stuck however because I want to open multiple Powershell windows from powershell. When I type the command for powershell, it opens a new session. This is similar to typing bash in bash. I want multiple physical windows opening.

I tried -windowstyle as well as the other args to no avail. I was wondering if there is a way you know of. I really appreciate your help. I looked and didn't find anything already here. Thanks for your time.

start-process powershell 

Or:

start powershell 

Answer 2

if you are trying to open a new window and launch a new script:

start powershell {.\scriptInNewPSWindow.ps1}
