Using PowerShell-Profile with PowerShell 5.1

[abt-effadj]

Hi. I use PowerShell 5.1 along with PowerShell 7.5.2. When I use the PowerShell-Profile against PowerShell 5.1, it has errors because some cmdlets do not support some parameters like PowerShell 7.x does.

Could you add some code logic so that the PowerShell-Profile can run under PowerShell 5.1 without errors?

Thanks!

@ChrisTitusTech any hope in resolving this even if just bypassing the errors when invoked in PowerShell 5.1? Or make the profile code compatible with PowerShell 5.1 and PowerShell 7.5?

Thanks for your time and efforts!

@ChrisTitusTech here is a version that runs with both PowerShell 5.1 and 7.5.x if it works for you.
