Should I select Cmd or PowerShell FOR THE Win10 command line ?, Win10powershell

Speaking of command lines, you will surely think of scenarios where the top hackers in the movie beat the keyboard and scroll through full screen characters. As Microsoft continues to upgrade the Win10 system, the built-in default command line tool has been gradually migrated from Cmd to PowerShell. So, aside from those computer geeks, is it good for common users to choose Cmd or PowerShell when selecting the command line tool?

First, let's take a look at the resource usage of Cmd and PowerShell. When we run Cmd, we only need to occupy less than 1 MB of memory, which is almost negligible.

PowerShell requires about 20 mb of memory. The difference between the two is almost 40 ~ 50 times. It can be seen from this that if your computer is old and has low performance, you can use Cmd to obtain a higher fluency.
