How do I get the directory of the PowerShell script I execute? [duplicate]
Solution 1:
PowerShell 3 has the $PSScriptRoot automatic variable:
Contains the directory from which a script is being run.
In Windows PowerShell 2.0, this variable is valid only in script modules (.psm1). Beginning in Windows PowerShell 3.0, it is valid in all scripts.
Don't be fooled by the poor wording. PSScriptRoot is the directory of the current file.
In PowerShell 2, you can calculate the value of $PSScriptRoot yourself:
# PowerShell v2
$PSScriptRoot = Split-Path -Parent -Path $MyInvocation.MyCommand.Definition
