  • One of the following Microsoft operating systems:
    • Windows 7
    • Windows Server 2008 or 2008 R2
    • Windows 8 or higher
    • Windows Server 2012 or 2012 R2
  • Windows Management Framework 4 (which already includes PowerShell 4)
  • Microsoft .Net Framework 4 or newer

If you are using UMS 5.08.100 or higher, you will need at least IMI PowerShell Cmdlets 1.04.100.

Lower versions of IMI PowerShell Cmdlets are not compatible with UMS 5.08.100 or higher, because this UMS version uses TLS 1.2.

  2. Launch the installer.


    You need administration privileges in order to install IMI Commandlets.
  3. Close all other applications and confirm that you have done so.
