Visual Studio 2022 Community Shell Function runtime error #91449

Description

@vsfeedback

This issue has been moved from a ticket on Developer Community.


[severity:It's more difficult to complete my work]
The following code executes without error in Visual Studio 2019

Shell("powershell c:\SystemCommon\Scripts\CollectHistoricalVersionFolders.ps1", AppWinStyle.Hide, True)

In VS 2022 Community, the step just blows right thru the line, returning powershell is not a valid program.
This happens with powershell.exe and with the full path specified.

I added -command at the suggestion of another post (although I never needed it in 2019), resulting in the same error.

Is there a path that I need to set up for my project's execution that differs from what "path" returns in cmd (powershell is in that)?

If so, how do I accomplish that?

Or is it something else?
