PowerShell 7 MSI deployment and update-control note

For managed Windows deployments of PowerShell 7, Microsoft documents MSI command-line properties that are safer than relying on installer defaults. A typical silent install is msiexec.exe /package PowerShell-7.x.x-win-x64.msi /quiet ADD_EXPLORER_CONTEXT_MENU_OPENPOWERSHELL=1 ENABLE_PSREMOTING=1 REGISTER_MANIFEST=1 ADD_PATH=1 ENABLE_MU=1 USE_MU=1 DISABLE_TELEMETRY=1.

The MSI properties are independent toggles: ADD_PATH=1 adds PowerShell to PATH, REGISTER_MANIFEST=1 registers Windows Event Logging manifests, ENABLE_PSREMOTING=1 enables remoting during install, and ADD_EXPLORER_CONTEXT_MENU_OPENPOWERSHELL=1 adds Explorer context-menu integration. Use ENABLE_MU=1 with USE_MU=1 when devices should opt into Microsoft Update servicing; leave those unset if updates are controlled only by your software-management tool.

Official source: Microsoft PowerShell installation documentation for Windows lists the MSI command-line options and update controls at learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/install/install-powershell-on-windows.
