  IMPORTANT NOTES for your Operating System:

      PowerShell 4 and later requires at least .NET 3.5.1.
        This package will warn you and exit if it is not installed.
        It is not automatically installed as a dependency so that you
        maintain complete control over the .NET version in your build.

        WARNING: Review the release notes to learn which software products are not compatible with this upgrade (e.g. SCCM SERVERS.)
