Many of those shell commands change to a system state or configuration in some way actions might include
restarting a computer modifying service disabled in a user account and so on.
Windows powers shell standards specify that such commands support to parameters what if and confer which
enables you to test and control command execution commands that do support those parameters will list
the parameters in their help files when it is Aronowitz what the parameter x amount will not actually
exist.
Instead it will display messages that indicate what it would have done when it is Aronowitz confirm
parameter.
The command will stop and ask you whether it should continue for each item that is planned to be modified.
For example if you are trying to stop turn services you'll be prompted ten times once for each service.
Each command has an internal third and call to its current form impact.
This is said by the commands developer to low medium or high.
Windows POAs Shell has to build in reference variables so certains that interact with the conform impact
and the confirmation behavior this reference variables are named Dolorosa unconfirmed preference and
dollar sign what if preference.
And when you open a new shell session they are each set to high by default.
You may change them to low or medium for example by Taipan dollar sign confirmed preference equals in
quotes medium.
You should be aware of that changes is fact that the current shell session or the open sessions are
not affected and your change is lost when you close the current session windows PowerShares confirmation
behavior works as follows.
When the command is run Windows Shell checks its internal.
Confirm.
Impact level.
If the level is equal to or higher than the appropriate reference wearable windows Polwarth shell performs
the confirmation action automatically.
For example suppose that a command has to conform.
Impact of medium and uset conform preference still low the command runs this shell will see that its
impact is higher than the reference and will act as if you had used confirm parameter.
This means you will be prompted to continue or to halt the command.
If a command to use an internal conforming bucket of high load command trail all this all to conform
you can override this by specifying does confirm call on Dolor character falls.
So in that case it won't confirm you.
It won't interact with you.
