Commented Issue: PowerShell Version Check Error [19739]

In AutoSPInstallerLaunch.bat in Windows Server 2012 it was incorrectly telling me my PowerShell version was 1 and terminating the script.
Running get-host confirmed powershell was version 3.

The line that was causing the error was line 44:
"%SYSTEMROOT%\system32\windowspowershell\v1.0\powershell.exe" $host.Version.Major | find "1" >nul

When this ran it found a 1 in the instanceID which was part of the string that got returned even though the string reported version 3.0 at the end.

I changed the line to:
"%SYSTEMROOT%\system32\windowspowershell\v1.0\powershell.exe" $host.Version.Major | find "1.0" >nul
and it ran correctly.

I hope this helps correct a small issue before others encounter it.

Hello Brian,

I have experience the same issue. When the script is checking for PowerShell version it goes directly to V1. I have made changes to the AutoSPInstallerLaunch.bat on the following line.
"%SYSTEMROOT%\system32\windowspowershell\v1.0\powershell.exe" $host.Version.Major | find "3" >nul.

Rather than find "2", use find "3"
