I have installed TFS Power Tools and I am trying to use the powershell snapin, but I can't figure out how to set it up. When I look in the install folder, I only see the following 5 dlls.

Microsoft.TeamFoundation.PowerToys.Client.dll Microsoft.TeamFoundation.PowerToys.Common.dll Microsoft.TeamFoundation.PowerToys.Controls.dll Microsoft.VisualStudio.TeamFoundation.PowerToys.Common.dll Microsoft.VisualStudio.TeamFoundation.PowerToys.dll

I used instalutil to install each one, and then I used the folowing ps code to see what cmdlets where installed so I could add the snapin but it looks like only a handfull exist in those dlls and these commands are not useful to me right now.

PS H:\> get-pssnapin -registered


Name        : TfsBPAPowerShellSnapIn
PSVersion   : 1.0
Description : This is a PowerShell snap-in that includes Team Foundation Server cmdlets.



PS H:\> get-command -pssnapin TfsBPAPowerShellSnapIn

    CommandType     Name                                                Definition
