Hi, I had been testing waters with Microsoft Visual Studio Code (VS Code).

Running into some inconsistences.  Cannot run PowerCLI scripts that call PSDrive. It appears VScode cannot access VIM Inventory providers. I am running VS Code as Administrator

Any suggestions on how to work with PSDrive under VS Code? Perhaps I need to adjust VS code settings\permissions to get access to VimInventory? Below is comparison of VS Code vs ISE

Thank you

Example: Get-PSDrive under VScode. There are no vi or vis listed
