Hi Nbabutc!

 

We have the ability to execute powershell scripts and wait for the commands to take place by using the 'Wscript.Shell' object. This allows TC to handle powershell sessions and even bring the results of any commands back into TC as well!

 

You may find information and samples on this process in the below document;

I hope this helps!
