PowerGUI Gone - now what?

I looked and it seems Dell has removed PowerGUI from their download page and I don't see it anywhere else.

I needed that to be able to get a vsphere object, put it into the object inspector, and then drill down and figure out how to call the properties on something like a VM that are hidden deep in the extension data.

What is the best tool to replace PowerGUI That allows me to do this?  Can't do it with the PowerShell ISE last I checked...

Thanks!

The modules did not auto load.  Including line you provided into the Microsoft.VSCode_profile.ps1 finally loads up all modules to VSC

Perhaps you can update your blog for others about this as well.  Thank you for the assistance.

So did you finally make it work with the VMware PowerCLI autocompletion?

Why would you need an IDE from 2013?

And if you absolutely need it, I think Chocolatey Gallery is a safer bet.

Just a follow-up, I went ahead and loaded PowerShell Plus from Idera and really like it.  Reminds me of powergui.  Was able to get a view of things that allowed me to be productive very quickly.  Thank you!
