In my previous Blog post we talk about updating modules with my tools but my tools have some mistakes no runspace thank’s to @trevor_smsagent. Now you can update some module and not all in the main time.

1. The Update part update

In this part by Default when you Click on Find-Module the script search for All installed module if an update is available on PowerShell Gallery and it compare all version for the Scope CurrentUser.
