According to the List of fixes that are included in Windows XP Service Pack 3(KB926139), the Windows PowerShell 1.0 English Language Installation Packages for Windows Server 2003 and for Windows XP (KB926139) is present.
But, after installing Service Pack 3, Powershell is not there!!! Aren't all hotfixex/updates supposed to be installed by the Service Pack? What did I do wrong?
Thanks

PowerShell isn't included in XP SP3 (it's not in Vista SP1 either). You have to install it manually. I recommend v2 anyways. I've been using the current CTP for some time without any issues.
Don't forget to install WinRM/WS-Management if you want to be able to use PowerShell remoting.
I know it's listed on there, but I just looked on a vanilla XP Pro SP3 en-US install (I don't use nlite or anything like that -- SP3 integrated by hand), and it's definitely not installed. There's no trace of the PowerShell executables, directories, or its registry entries or anything anywhere in sight. Or maybe it only installs if you have an old RC installed already or such (updates it). No idea...
