Updating help on PowerShell on Mac

Question

I'm new to PowerShell and I know on PowerShell on windows you need to run as administrator to update the help files, but how do you update help files on PowerShell on Mac?

Answer 1

At this time, it does not look like the Update-Help Cmdlet is supported for Mac or Linux. For the time being I would suggest going to the technet website for each help file.

You can get there from the Command Line with the -Online parameter:

Get-Help Write-Output -Online 

or

Get-Help about_Functions -Online 

These commands will take you directly to technet page you need. These pages will always be up to date.
