To go to the registry branch HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWARE you should type the following: cd hklm:software
To list all pseudonyms with their prototypes, enter the following command: gal | select name, definition
The Get-Command is used to display the list of available commands, and after running Help Get-Command you will see a compete description of the command Get-Command, including its purpose, syntax, options etc.
Using another command, Get-Service, you will see the list of all services running on this computer.
To view the list of processes running at the moment, type the command Get-Process.
The command Set-Content (or its pseudonym sc) is used to write values into a file. If the designated target file doesn’t exist, this command will create it. The example below illustrates how the value “My data” is written into a file named newfile.txt: sc mynewfile.txt -value “My data”
The opposite of sc is the command Get-Content (gc). The command gc is used to read contents of a file. For example, the command shown below helps you display the contents of the file newfile.txt: gc mynewfile.txt
The command Get-Eventlog lets you extract Windows event logs. Just like with Get-Process, there is no need to use any additional tools. The example below illustrates extracting 10 latest entries from the event log: get-eventlog -newest 10 -logname system
To receive information on on process only, add its name after Get-Process. Get-Process and the process name. Get-Process explorer
The following script writes text to a file: “Hello!” | Out-File C:\test.txt
After your PowerShell testing period is over, don’t forget to enable the setting to run only signed files again. Type the following command:
Set-ExecutionPolicy AllSigned
