Syntax


Description
The Set-Alias cmdlet creates or changes an alias (alternate name) for a cmdlet or for a command element, such as a func
tion, a script, a file, or other executable. You can also use Set-Alias to reassign a current alias to a new command, o
r to change any of the properties of an alias, such as its description. Unless you add the alias to the Windows PowerSh
ell profile, the changes to an alias are lost when you exit the session or close Windows PowerShell.
