title: How do I get PowerShell 4 cmdlets such as Test-NetConnection to work on Windows 7?
body: <p>The situation.  On a Windows 7 SP1 machine, I have updated with Windows6.1-KB2819745-x64-MultiPkg.msu.  Furthermore, in PowerShell $PSVersionTable now reports ‘PSVersion 4.0’.</p>
  
  <p>At present, my conclusion is that many PowerShell 4 cmdlets such Test-NetConnection, will only work on Windows 8.1. However, I was wondering if there was a work-around whereby I could import PowerShell 4 modules on my Windows 7 machine.</p>
