PowerShell Universal - 2026.1.6

Nice job on the UI improvements and thanks for taking care of the Grant-PSUAppToken bug so quickly.

Agreed. Love to see UI improvements.

Nope. I’m sorry, but I still get “The term ‘Import-PowerShellDataFile’ is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program." in Windows Powershell 5…

I am still receiving the following after updating to 2026.1.6:

The 'ConvertTo-SecureString' command was found in the module 'Microsoft.PowerShell.Security', but the module could not be loaded. For more information, run 'Import-Module Microsoft.PowerShell.Security'.

I’m also still having issues with regex-based APIs as reported in
Regex-style API endpoint route does not match requests, while equivalent documented :variable routes work · Issue #5606 · ironmansoftware/powershell-universal

There seems to be an issue in 2026.1.6 with the
git commit page.

On both my servers, the GIT comparison view of changed code lines is distorted and not visible. Just a thin line…

I guess he fixed scrolling caused other issues ?

Already opened an issue for it. https://github.com/issues/created?issue=ironmansoftware|powershell-universal|5626

I’m having the same issue with the Security module import. Temporarily resolved it by clearing the PSModulePath environment variable, then trying to import. This only recently started.

try {
    write-host "Previous module path: $($env:PSModulePath)`n"
    Write-host "Clearing path before trying import..."
    $env:PSModulePath = ""
    Import-Module Microsoft.PowerShell.Security
} catch {
    throw "Error! Could not import module: $($_.Exception)"
}

Hey,

Ever since upgrading to 2026.1.6, I’ve been getting the below error message when trying to run Merge-PSUGitEdit and Start-PSUGitEdit. Running the Git Sync manually using the GUI works fine.

Error obtaining client-helper 'UnaryTaskAsync' (from: 'PowerShellUniversal.GitCommit', to: 'PowerShellUniversal.CompleteEditingStatus'): GenericArguments[1], 'PowerShellUniversal.CompleteEditingStatus', on 'System.Threading.Tasks.Task`1[TResponse] UnaryTaskAsync[TRequest,TResponse](ProtoBuf.Grpc.CallContext ByRef, Grpc.Core.CallInvoker, Grpc.Core.Method`2[TRequest,TResponse], TRequest, System.String)' violates the constraint of type 'TResponse'.

I have also had this issue and opened an issue for it. Sync-PSU throws error · Issue #5642 · ironmansoftware/powershell-universal · GitHub

did you find some other fix for that?

Sadly not.
I did not test if it works over the management API; maybe that’s the last resort?
I ended up enabling automatic sync intervals until the next version.
