I'm using Out-GridView for PowerShell. Everything seems to work out fine, with the notable exception that Quick Filter searches do not allow for spaces to be typed in between multiple words. Unfortunately this is exactly what is advertised on its docs.microsoft utility website:

Search for multiple words. To search for multiple words in the table, type the words separated by spaces. Out-GridView displays rows that include all the words (logical AND).

I've tried loading Out-GridView with a few variations (such as the standard Get-Process) but nothing seems to work. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix it?

Edited: I actually discovered that it was due to the differences between running Gridview through PowerShell and PowerShell ISE; the problem only manifested when I was running it through ISE. Face-plant worthy.

    I've always had this issue on multiple devices. Not really a solution but you can type two words without spaces and then go back and insert a space into the string, it seems to only be when the space is at the end of the string it doesn't permit it. – Jacob Oct 03 '20 at 15:43
  • I don't see the symptom in Windows PowerShell v5.1.18362.752, which comes with Windows 10 version 1909. I do see the symptom in PowerShell [Core] v7.0, however. Please add details about your environment to the question. – mklement0 Oct 03 '20 at 15:56

  • Thanks for the help. Unfortunately I use a corporate machine so I do not have the ability to install PowerShell's Graphical Tools. – R. James Oct 08 '20 at 21:14
