Summary: Use Windows PowerShell to find installed ODBC drivers.

Hey, Scripting Guy! Question How can  I use Windows PowerShell to check installed ODBC drivers so that I can investigate if a missing
           driver might be the cause of a database application that appears to be failing?

Hey, Scripting Guy! Answer Use the Get-OdbcDriver function from the WDAC module, for example:

Get-OdbcDriver | Format-Table name, platform -AutoSize
