I have a video available, but I think the video link on YouTube is getting my post in this forum auto-removed.
I’m in Powershell 7 in admin mode on Windows 11. I have been spending literal hours trying to solve this problem. I’m at my wit’s end. Please rescue me Powershell.org
- I run Get-Help Get-Process -Full and at the bottom of the help page it tells me:
“REMARKS
Get-Help cannot find the Help files for this cmdlet on this computer. It is displaying only partial help.
– To download and install Help files for the module that includes this cmdlet, use Update-Help.
– To view the Help topic for this cmdlet online, type: “Get-Help Get-Process -Online” or
go to (won’t let me post links but here is a microsoft link).”
- Okay fine. So I run Update-Help or Update-Help -Force
Multiple file folders start appearing in my Documents folder. Named things like Powershell E15-2 (there are about 20 of these folders that appear Powershell E15 through Powershell E15-20)
- Go back to running Get-Help Get-Process -Full
Same message appears at the bottom

Video of the problem I’m having:
I’ve been beating my head against the wall all morning trying to solve this. Literal hours of reading documentation, help files, searching Google, posting on Reddit, etc. Please rescue me, Powershell.org
I’m on Windows 11, using PS ver 7 in admin mode. And every time I run update-help it puts help files into my Documents folder but never updates help in the shell.
Literally any help would be massively appreciated.
