How to run a command with the same name as a PowerShell alias?

Question

I have a few command line utilities that have the same name as PowerShell aliases. For example where (alias for Where-Object ) shadows the where tool that comes with Windows.

In bash I can skip aliases using \ or command like \where or command where . Is there something similar in PowerShell?

Answer 1

You can add the extension when invoking:

& where.exe "arguments"

Or specify the full path.
