I've been trying to turn OFF the syntax high lighting but using examples here all I get are errors: Set-PSReadLineOption : A parameter cannot be found that matches parameter name 'TokenKind'. At line:1 char:22 + Set-PSReadlineOption -TokenKind Comment -ForegroundColor $Host.UI.Raw ... + ~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : InvalidArgument: (:) [Set-PSReadLineOption], ParameterBindingException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : NamedParameterNotFound,Microsoft.PowerShell.SetPSReadLineOption

Since I don't have what it takes to comment I have to ask a NEW question..

The syntax changed in a recent update. The old syntax will now give you a error message. So now you have to use this:

Set-PSReadLineOption -Colors @{None='black';Comment='black';Keyword='black';String='black';Operator='black';Variable='black';Command='black';Parameter='black';Type='black';Number='black';Member='black'}
