Any configuration stored in $PSHOME needs to be in a different location.  On Windows 10, it would make sense to be in $env:SystemDrive\\ProgramData.\r\n\r\n`Register-PSSessionConfiguration` stores the config file in [$PSHOME\\SessionConfig](https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/search?l=C%23\u0026q=%22sessionconfig%22) folder.\r\n\r\n`powershell.config.json` for the system is stored in $PSHOME, this means that admins can't set system wide config and cmdlets like `Enable-ExperimentalFeature -Scope AllUsers` won't work.\r\n\r\n`Update-Help -Scope AllUsers` also won't work as it's stored in $PSHOME.\r\n\r\nWhen this is fixed, test changes relying on `Test-CanWriteToPsHome` should be reverted.","author":{"url":"https://github.com/SteveL-MSFT","@type":"Person","name":"SteveL-MSFT"},"datePublished":"2019-04-03T02:42:07.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":43},"url":"https://github.com/9278/PowerShell/issues/9278"}
