Set-Location scope

Question

Given this file

Set-Location C:\

If I run it

.\foo.ps1

It will change the directory in the script. However once the script is finished the parent console directory has also been changed. Can Set-Location be called in such a way as to affect only the running script?

Answer 1

try
{
     Push-Location
     Set-Location c:\
     # your code here ...
}

finally
{
     Pop-Location
}
