Aliases in PowerShell - how to obtain them, after restarting PowerShell

Aliases are very cool stuff. All cmdlets (command in PowerShell - dll with power of .NET) contains name like get for some result from a environment, add to add some values to memoria or set to set a variable and so on. Alias are short names for the integrated or your own cmdlets.

Example:

We all use help to see, what member or properties are avaible from an cmdlet. A command to get help is get-help. I, on other hand, dont like long names, so, i used alias to shorten the name and to simply memorize it.

set-alias help get-help
 

Nice. I was starting to write a lot of aliases. Then, i updated my machine, so restart was neccessary. After reboot, i started the power shell and my aliases were gone. Hm. Then i discovered the way to save them. Basicly, there are 2 ways:

• in your profile
• create a file, named Profile.ps1 in your PowerShell directory (hint: C:\WINDOWS\system32\windowspowershell\v1.0 ). If you allready have it, then open it. Then write your aliases each in a line.
  
• Save the file and restart your PowerShell window
• in a file (i like this one, because it is portable. Like, i can send my aliases to my friend and he can use it anyway he like it)
• create a file with a name of your choice with extension ps1 in a PowerShell directory.Write your aliases.
• save the file
• open Profile.ps1 file, add full path to your aliases in a line (dont matter where), and use quotation marks like this "C:\WINDOWS\system32\windowspowershell\v1.0\aliases.ps1"
• save the file Profile.ps1
• restart the PowerShell
