Why doesn't PowerShell 5 from Windows 7 have the same features as Windows 10?

I upgraded PowerShell from 4.0 to 5.0 (February 2016) on my computer running Windows 7 SP1.

$PSVersionTable shows PowerShell 5.0, but the shell does not have the same features as PowerShell 5.0 in Windows 10.

Differences:

  • Keyword Highlighting
  • Select text using the Shift + Arrow keys
  • Copy / Paste with Ctrl + C / V

Why is there a difference?

How to get / enable these missing features?
