I think this is the right place to ask…

Can anybody recommend a book and / or a set of videos to learn powershell from scratch?

I have been looking some are years old and some of the teaching styles are a bit suspect.

I was watching one that was a Microsoft one but it was old too and I’ll be honest not sure if it’s relevant

Powershell in a month of lunches is a good start.

But I’d always recommend finding ways to use it in your day to day tasks if possible, after you do it in the GUI, find out how to do the same thing in PS.

Just to update went with this book and it is well written and easy to follow. Thanks.

Powershell in a month of lunches is good - I found that inventing a scenario and then building the solution, testing it, breaking it and fixing it helped me loads.
