PowerShell v7.6.3 Drops, PSGuerrilla v2.10.7 Releases with GUI and Numerous Bug Fixes
+Conference Videos for PowerShell Summit and PSConfEU Drop
I am happy to announce the release of PSGuerrilla v2.10.7, a tremendous improvement of the previous version that now has a fancy WPF GUI. As a reminder, PSGuerrilla is a robust security auditing platform that has over 400 different audits for Active Directory, Entra/Azure/M365, and Google Workspace. You can read more about what it specifically does at https://guerrilla.army
It is incredibly easy to install, it’s now in PSGallery, so you just need to run:
Install-Module PSGuerrilla
Then, you can now launch the GUI with
Show-Guerrilla
And get a nice fancy report like this one, though hopefully not this failed :)
Videos, Videos, Videos!!!
The PowerShell Global DevOps Summit videos are now LIVE! They began dropping videos earlier this week. Here is the entire playlist.
The Same for PSConfEU! Everything is live on here on this playlist:
How Much Will July 2026 License Increases Cost Your Tenant
July 1, 2026, is the day Microsoft starts charging tenants more for nearly every license in the M365 catalog. Tony Redmond serves up a PowerShell script that retrieves the licenses assigned across your users, applies the published increase rates for each affected product, and returns the real monthly impact for your tenant. The increase rates vary by SKU and the script handles the variation cleanly. If you have not already had this conversation with your finance team, this is the read for this weekend. Pair it with last week’s piece on stale accounts and you have a complete pre July audit kit.

PowerShell 7.6.3 Released as Current LTS
Microsoft shipped PowerShell 7.6.3 on Tuesday and Andres Bohren has the install walkthrough on his blog. The build sits on the .NET 10.0.9 runtime, and the headline shift for Mac shops is that the macOS PKG package is now notarized and signed by Microsoft, closing a long standing gap for production deployments on Apple silicon. 7.6.3 is the current LTS, while the previous LTS at 7.4.17 still has support through November 10, 2026, so the upgrade can be planned rather than scrambled. Worth dropping into your test ring this weekend.

Microsoft.Graph PowerShell SDK 2.38.0 Ships
Same Tuesday, Microsoft also pushed version 2.38.0 of both the Microsoft.Graph and Microsoft.Graph.Beta modules to the PowerShell Gallery. Andres notes that Microsoft did not publish release notes for this one, but the comparing changes view on GitHub fills the gap if you want to know exactly what shifted between 2.37 and 2.38. Andres continues to install through PSResourceGet with the Microsoft Artifact Registry rather than the older PowerShellGet workflow, which mirrors where Microsoft is steering everyone for first party module installation. If you have not switched over yet, this is the release to do it on. https://blog.icewolf.ch/archive/2026/06/16/microsoft-graph-powershell-modules-2-38-0-released/
Microsoft Tightens Self Service Password Reset in September
Tony Redmond writes that Microsoft is closing a soft spot in Self Service Password Reset starting September 6, 2026. Today, SSPR can fall back on directory attributes to verify a user, which is a risk because those attributes can be modified by an attacker who has already compromised an account. The new behavior requires every user to register at least one authentication method through their Security Info page, and SSPR verifies identity only through that registered method. Microsoft kicks off a registration campaign on July 6 to push users and administrators to register before enforcement. Get your registration reporting in place now so the campaign does not surprise you.

Removing Problematic Teams Chat Threads with Graph PowerShell
Sometimes a user posts something to Teams that has to come down, and the standard admin experience does not make that easy. Tony Redmond walks through the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK cmdlets to find chat threads, scan thread messages for the targeted content, and remove the offending threads. The script can run interactively for one off cleanup, or get wrapped into a tenant maintenance routine if this is something you handle regularly. If you have ever scrambled to pull a bad chat thread out of Teams in the middle of an incident, this one is worth a bookmark. https://office365itpros.com/2026/06/15/delete-teams-chat-threads/
Andres Bohren Marks 3000 Blog Posts
Andres Bohren hit a milestone this week with his 3000th blog post, written 19 years after his first post in November 2007. He calculated the average using New TimeSpan in PowerShell, naturally, and worked out that he has published a blog post roughly every other day for almost two decades. The archive spans Exchange, Outlook, ESX, SQL, Active Directory, and of course PowerShell, and the consistency is what got him recognized as a Microsoft MVP. If you want a single example of what consistent community contribution looks like over a career, his archive is the model.

PowerShell Universal, Community, and the Magic of Showing Up with Adriano Carollo
My good friend Andrew Pla and Berlin sysadmin Adriano Carollo on city swings then over dinner at PSConfEU 2026. Adriano covers how PowerShell Universal pulled him into web app territory through React and JavaScript, why he built an open source personal assistant in PowerShell, and what it took to pay his own way to the conference after Andrew's podcast convinced him to show up. Andrew shares his own origin story for the first time on the show.
Microsoft Artifact Registry Hits Its Stride with the 2.38 Release
The Microsoft.Graph 2.38 release this week is another data point in the steady migration that Microsoft is running to shift first party PowerShell modules from the community PowerShell Gallery to the Microsoft Artifact Registry. Andres Bohren installs every Microsoft module through MAR using PSResourceGet, and his M365PSProfile module wraps the workflow if you want a turnkey way to keep your tenant tools current. The pitch is straightforward. MAR is a Microsoft controlled feed with stronger provenance and ownership guarantees than the community gallery, which has had its share of compromised module incidents. If your environment still pulls Microsoft modules from PSGallery by default, this is the year to swap.
