 # `$PROFILE`
 
-`$PROFILE.CurrentUserAllHosts` is a good place to make customizations (if you're familiar with Bash it's similar to `~/.bashrc`). There is a specific `$PROFILE.CurrentUserCurrentHost` when you're inside VSCodium and other Hosts if you're interested in that, they all inherit from `$PROFILE.CurrentUserAllHosts` which is probably `~/Documents/PowerShell/profile.ps1` by the way!

+## Custom prompt function
+
 A very simple first customization one can do is update the prompt. This will indicate whether or not you're running as an Administrator.
 
 ```powershell
-function Test-Admin {
-  $currentUser = New-Object Security.Principal.WindowsPrincipal $([Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity]::GetCurrent())
-  $currentUser.IsInRole([Security.Principal.WindowsBuiltinRole]::Administrator)
-}
-
 function prompt {
   $prompt = "> "
-  If (Test-Admin -eq $true) {
+  If ((New-Object Security.Principal.WindowsPrincipal $(
+        [Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity]::GetCurrent()
+      ).IsInRole(
+        [Security.Principal.WindowsBuiltinRole]::Administrator
+      )
+    )) {
     $prompt = "Admin$prompt"
   }
   $prompt
 }
 ```
 
-Note the `Test-Admin` function, which is now available globally, will be used again in the `full_update.ps1` script and is generally a nice utility to have. I also added `Install-Scoop` and `Install-BleachBit` utility functions. They are totally optional but, I think, useful.

 # `$env:PATH`
 
 Folders in the semi-colon seperated `$env:PATH` string are searched for cmdlets, executables and scripts to run (again, if you're familiar with Bash it's similar to `$PATH`). Putting the following in `$PROFILE` will make custom `.ps1` scripts in that same folder "global" (available from any prompt without specifying the whole path).
 
 ```powershell
-$env:path += ";$(Split-Path -Parent $MyInvocation.MyCommand.Path)"
+$env:PATH += ";$(Split-Path -Parent $MyInvocation.MyCommand.Path)"
 ```
 
-[`Split-Path`](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.management/split-path?view=powershell-7.3) is a pretty useful cmdlet for working with paths. Here we're saying "give me the parent folder for the current command path", the current command is `$PROFILE` in this context. `MyInvocation` is from the [automatic variables](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.core/about/about_automatic_variables?view=powershell-7.3#myinvocation) which are provided by PowerShell under-the-hood.

-With this I've also added a `full_update.ps1` script that will update Windows as well as scoop if it's installed and then run `bleachbit --preset --clean` (also only if installed) which depends on whatever you've last checked in the bleachbit UI... so run that and set it up first! The script will also run itself again as Administrator if you're not in an elevated session already... which is usually. If you're familiar with Arch Linux you might say `yay`!
