That is where the rubber
meets the road so to speak. To use Exchange Management Shell effectively you must familiarize yourself
with some basic concepts for navigation and control.
Getting Around
One of the first things with which you should become familiar is how to find your way around inside
Windows PowerShell. If you are familiar with other shells like cmd.exe , you already understand the
concept of file system navigation: named files and the hierarchical directories where these files are
located.
In Windows PowerShell, this concept is expanded to include systems outside of the familiar file system.
These other systems can be accessed and navigated from the command line in the same way you
would navigate the file system. For example, you can navigate the Registry or certificate store on a
server using the same commands for navigating the file drives.
Because other things besides files can be accessed from the command line, in Windows PowerShell all
these things are referred to as items . Carrying this concept further, the place where an item can be found
is referred to as a location .
After starting a default instance of the Exchange Management Shell, the command prompt is presented
to the user with the current location set to the ??? home ??? file directory of the user context.
