In PowerShell ISE in Windows 11 (clean install), the Find dialog box no longer searches by pressing the Enter key. It appears the "Find Next" button is no longer set as the default button for the form. Therefore, I have to either Tab five or six times to activate it or press Alt+F which is a bit awkward.

Please advise.

    ISE is practically dead. Recommended modern editor is VSCode with its PowerShell extension. Commented Jun 27, 2023 at 14:23
  • Note that he PowerShell ISE is no longer actively developed and there are reasons not to use it (bottom section), notably not being able to run PowerShell (Core) 7+. The actively developed, cross-platform editor that offers the best PowerShell development experience is Visual Studio Code with its PowerShell extension. Commented Jun 27, 2023 at 14:31

    That's certainly annoying, but, for the reasons stated above, it is unlikely to get fixed. Switching to a different IDE is always painful, but in the case at hand unavoidable in the long run. Commented Jun 27, 2023 at 14:34

    I have just reproduced the issue in a Win 11 VM (build 22000.856), EN. Indeed the "Find Next" button is no longer the default. Commented Jun 27, 2023 at 18:51
