Hello,

In terminal mode, PS, Get-Credentials commandlet does not work.  
Did anyone experience the same and found a workaround?

Thanks

Hi @Mike_D

There’s a regkey you can set to allow you to enter credentials without the pop up.

`Set-ItemProperty` `"HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\PowerShell\1\ShellIds"` `-Name` `"ConsolePrompting"` `-Value` `$True`

You can set it back to normal with $False when you’re done.
