With Dell’s acquisition of Quest and all the IT reorganization that followed, it is actually not that easy to find these two popular free PowerShell tools any longer. So here are the links that work today (January 30, 2015):
PowerGUI
The download is freely available from Dell’s PowerGUI community.
The community itself also got moved from http://powergui.org to http://en.community.dell.com/techcenter/powergui.
Dell Software is still maintaining the product – as I am writing this the latest version is 3.8 released in April 2014.
UPDATE: Looks like Dell took the community site down but direct download link http://community-downloads.quest.com/powergui/Release/3.8/PowerGUI.3.8.0.129.msi still works.
Quest / QAD cmdlets
This one is a little more tricky to find: https://software.dell.com/register/71110
If this link for some reason changes, all Dell’s freeware and trial links can be found in this catalog: http://software.dell.com/trials/
UPDATE: Looks like this got hidden even further. Not sure where it can be found now. This site seems to have copied and made them available for download though: http://www.powershelladmin.com/wiki/Quest_ActiveRoles_Management_Shell_Download
Happy PowerShelling!
