On the Dev version 10.0.22000.51, it comes with PowerShell version 5.1.22000.1, it has been relegated from the Win+x menu, and is found in the Windows Tools section of Control Panel, and is not found in Start, except in the link to Windows Tools from All apps. However, if you click Windows Terminal in the All apps list, it opens the current user PowerShell Console! There are both x86 and x64 versions on my Windows 11 Pro x64 installation. You have to select Run as Administrator from right-click on PowerShell Windows Tools to run an elevated PowerShell console. I shall be upgrading to vs. 7 shortly if available at Migrating from Windows PowerShell 5.1 to PowerShell 7 - PowerShell

I have Windows Terminal and Windows Terminal Preview, and Native PS and PS 7.x installed on my system so I can use whichever, and through Terminal it's a lot easier to use both PS and CMD (and other shells) natively in a tabbed interface.

And all are updated through the Store, too.

PS 7.1.3 Store | GitHub

PS 7.2.0 Preview Store | GitHub (latest - may be newer than store)

Windows Terminal Store | Github

Windows Terminal Preview Store | Github (latest - may be newer than store)

And using gsudo, I can also have elevated PS and elevated CMD in Terminal (not elevated Terminal, but elevated instance of the actual shell, so I can run, say, PS without admin and CMD with admin in side by side tabs.

Windows PowerShell is the native 5.x, PowerShell is the 7.x.

    Purchased early 2019 as Windows Insider test PC
I could always tell where PowerShell and cmd were coming from (and their global capability) by their Path - C:\windows\system32 meant elevated, C:\Users\User meant basic, until installing Ps7.1.3, where elevated and basic use the same path

I was wondering about that myself.. it's mature enough to be the default. But in the end it's easy enough to install.
