Close-ExcelPackage -Show broken on MacOS due to PowerShell issue
pccasto opened this issue · comments
This is just informational for this project.
Close-ExcelPackage with -Show results in
Start-Process: An error occurred trying to start process </dir/file> with working directory '</workdir>'. Permission denied
Line 36 in Close-ExcelPackage
if ($Show) { Start-Process -FilePath $SaveAs }
Seems to run afoul of a PowerShell bug:
PowerShell/PowerShell#20990
That bug was reported against 7.4.0, but I experienced it on 7.3.3 as well.
It is possible to patch Close-Excel package to do something like this:
$SaveAsObj = gci $SaveAs
Start-Process -FilePath $SaveAsObj.Name -WorkingDirectory $SaveAsObj.DirectoryName
Not suggesting this as a change to the source, but if anyone else is faced with this problem, this may help.
@pccasto Thanks for issue and workaround
