Hope you can help me with a problem trying to execute a script block
Get-AzAksVersion -Location CanadaCentral | Where-Object -Property OrchestratorVersion -gt 1.22.11, IsPreview -ne $true
trying to get the versions greater than the current version and excluding the preview version, getting error as Parameter set cannot be resolved. Thanks in advance.
I tried to reproduce the same in my environment and got the same error as below:
Get-AzAksVersion -Location CanadaCentral | Where-Object -Property OrchestratorVersion -gt 1.22.11, IsPreview -ne $true
To resolve the error, try the below command:
Get-AzAksVersion -Location CanadaCentral | where-Object {($_.OrchestratorVersion -gt '1.22.15') -and ($_.IsPreview -ne 'True')}

I received a request to run this on each of my systems which pulls a list of installed applications and outputs it into a text file. I then have to combine all of these things into something more readable which will take a while. I am learning Powershell and want to make this be executed from one system, pull from a list of servers in a text file and run this query from one place against all of the systems:
Get-ItemProperty HKLM:\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\* | Select-Object DisplayName, DisplayVersion, Publisher, InstallDate | Format-Table –AutoSize > "$Env:userprofile\desktop\Installed Programs for $env:computername.txt"
I've started working on it but am thinking I am missing something to get this to work. I am currently piping this to a string to then output to a csv (I am open to suggestions). This is what I have so far.
# Computer running this script
$WhoAmI = $env:ComputerName
$ServerList = get-content -path "C:\scripts\ServerList.txt"
$Path = "C:\scripts\results"
foreach ($server in $ServerList)
{
$InstalledApps = Invoke-Command -ComputerName $server {Get-ItemProperty HKLM:\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\* }
$Results += $InstalledApps |
Select-Object DisplayName, DisplayVersion, Publisher, InstallDate |
Out-String
}
Write-Host $InstallApps
# $InstallApps | export-csv "$Path\InstalledFiles.csv"
I currently am testing the functionality of the loop by just trying to get it to write to the screen. I only get a blank response.
You weren't getting output because you used the (undefined) variable $InstallApps instead of the variable $results.
With that said, I wouldn't recommend doing string concatenation in a loop. Something like this would be a more elegant approach:
Get-Content -Path 'C:\scripts\ServerList.txt' | ForEach-Object {
$server = $_
Invoke-Command -ComputerName $server -ScriptBlock {
Get-ItemProperty HKLM:\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\*
} | Select-Object #{n='Server';e={$server}}, DisplayName, DisplayVersion,
Publisher, InstallDate
} | Export-Csv 'C:\scripts\results\InstalledPrograms.csv' -NoType
I kind of figured it out. Rested eyes on a fresh day. Some mistakes in what I am writing out, etc. I am open to improvements if anyone has anything to contribute.
EDIT: I got it working mostly with the following but the output is messy. Open to suggestions.
# Computer running this script
$ServerList = get-content -path "C:\scripts\ServerList.txt"
$Path = "C:\scripts\results"
foreach ($server in $ServerList)
{
$Results += "Results for $server"
$InstalledApps = Invoke-Command -ComputerName $server -ScriptBlock {Get-ItemProperty HKLM:\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\* }
$Results += $InstalledApps |
Select DisplayName, DisplayVersion, Publisher, InstallDate |
Out-String
}
# Write-Host $Results
$Results | out-file -filepath "$Path\InstalledPrograms.txt" -width 200
I have a txt file with all the server names.
I want to query each server in the txt to see if RDS is installed. So far it works fine. But the export needs to have servername and the installed role. how can I pass the servername to the output file.
At the moment it is querying but only the installed. so with a 100 servers who really can tell which server has it installed and which doesnt>>>> PLEase help
Import-Module ServerManager
Get-Content W:\AllWindows.txt | ForEach-Object {Get-WindowsFeature -Name Remote-Desktop-Services} | Format-Table -Auto -wrap | Out-File -FilePath $csvfile
Try something like this:
Get-Content W:\AllWindows.txt | ForEach-Object { #(($_), (Get-WindowsFeature -Name Remote-Desktop-Services)) } | Format-Table -Auto -wrap | Out-File -FilePath $csvfile
I have worked it out:
Get-Content W:\windows2012.csv | Foreach-Object {{Get-WindowsFeature | where-object {$_.Installed -eq $True} | Export-Csv -Path "W:\output\$_.txt"}
So, I want to write a powershell command that lists all the PIDS of all services within a range of numbers. So, it would display only pids greater than 5 but less than 35.
Get-Process | where-object {$_.WorkingSet -gt 5} | where-object {$_.WorkingSet -lt 35}
I am not sure the -lt is even valid to be honest- but can someone at least tell me if I am close or on the right path?
Close. I'd do this:
Get-Process | where-object {$_.WorkingSet -gt 5 -and $_.WorkingSet -lt 35}
I'm trying to write a very simple PowerShell script to give me the total number of items (both files and folders) in a given folder (c:\MyFolder). Here's what I've done:
Write-Host ( Get-ChildItem c:\MyFolder ).Count;
The problem is, that if I have 1 or 0 items, the command does not work---it returns nothing.
Any ideas?
You should use Measure-Object to count things. In this case it would look like:
Write-Host ( Get-ChildItem c:\MyFolder | Measure-Object ).Count;
or if that's too long
Write-Host ( dir c:\MyFolder | measure).Count;
and in PowerShell 4.0 use the measure alias instead of mo
Write-Host (dir c:\MyFolder | measure).Count;
I finally found this link:
https://blogs.perficient.com/microsoft/2011/06/powershell-count-property-returns-nothing/
Well, it turns out that this is a quirk caused precisely because there
was only one file in the directory. Some searching revealed that in
this case, PowerShell returns a scalar object instead of an array.
This object doesn’t have a count property, so there isn’t anything to
retrieve.
The solution -- force PowerShell to return an array with the # symbol:
Write-Host #( Get-ChildItem c:\MyFolder ).Count;
If you need to speed up the process (for example counting 30k or more files) then I would go with something like this..
$filepath = "c:\MyFolder"
$filetype = "*.txt"
$file_count = [System.IO.Directory]::GetFiles("$filepath", "$filetype").Count
Only Files
Get-ChildItem D:\ -Recurse -File | Measure-Object | %{$_.Count}
Only Folders
Get-ChildItem D:\ -Recurse -Directory | Measure-Object | %{$_.Count}
Both
Get-ChildItem D:\ -Recurse | Measure-Object | %{$_.Count}
You can also use an alias
(ls).Count
Recursively count files in directories in PowerShell 2.0
ls -rec | ? {$_.mode -match 'd'} | select FullName, #{N='Count';E={(ls $_.FullName | measure).Count}}
In powershell you can to use severals commands, for looking for this commands digit: Get-Alias;
So the cammands the can to use are:
write-host (ls MydirectoryName).Count
or
write-host (dir MydirectoryName).Count
or
write-host (Get-ChildrenItem MydirectoryName).Count
To count the number of a specific filetype in a folder.
The example is to count mp3 files on F: drive.
( Get-ChildItme F: -Filter *.mp3 - Recurse | measure ).Count
Tested in 6.2.3, but should work >4.
I need to copy files in one directory to another directory where the lastwritetime is greater than or equal to 3/26/2010 9:00pm. I'm using:
Get-ChildItem C:\pstest\hlstore\folder1\data | where-object {$i.lastwritetime -ge “3/26/2010 9:00 PM”} | Copy-Item -destination c:\pstest\hlstore2\folder1\data
But nothing happens...
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Try this:
Get-ChildItem C:\pstest\hlstore\folder1\data | where-object {$_.lastwritetime -ge "3/26/2010 9:00 PM"} | Copy-Item -destination c:\pstest\hlstore2\folder1\data
The name of the "it" variable in where-object is $_, not $i.
Also, if you're using these quotes “” instead of "", I think it would also fail.
