Restore Powershell functions

Question

This may seem like a total newb question, because it is...

I was testing some customised functions, specifically a function found here to suppress Write-Host. This deleted the original Powershell Write-Host function.

I have googled for a while but I can't find a way to restore the Powershell functions to "factory settings".

Does anyone know how to get the standard Write-Host back?

Just remove it and start a new instance of powershell.exe - the script in the second answer to the post you linked only removes it from the current session — Mathias R. Jessen, Jun 11 '20 at 11:11
Doh! Thanks! I feel a bit stupid now. I had already tried to close and reopen the Powershell window, but I had others open. When I closed all, it worked! — Erik Erik, Jun 11 '20 at 11:15
