List $Env:Path with PowerShell. You can also see path values in the Control Panel; navigate to the System section and then click on the link to 'Advanced system settings'.
PowerShell Get Current Directory of Script File To get current directory of script file or running script, use $PSScriptRoot automatic variable.
To display the directory content, Get-ChildItem cmdlet is used. You need to provide the path of the directory or if you are in the same directory, you need to use only Get-ChildItem directly. In the below example, we need to display the contents of the D:\temp directory.
Add | select FullName to the end of your line above. If you need to actually do something with that afterwards, you might have to pipe it into a foreach loop, like so:
get-childitem "C:\windows\System32" -recurse | where {$_.extension -eq ".txt"} | % {
Write-Host $_.FullName
}
This should perform much faster than using late filtering:
Get-ChildItem C:\WINDOWS\System32 -Filter *.txt -Recurse | % { $_.FullName }
You can also use Select-Object like so:
Get-ChildItem "C:\WINDOWS\System32" *.txt -Recurse | Select-Object FullName
Here's a shorter one:
(Get-ChildItem C:\MYDIRECTORY -Recurse).fullname > filename.txt
If relative paths are what you want you can just use the -Name flag.
Get-ChildItem "C:\windows\System32" -Recurse -Filter *.txt -Name
Try this:
Get-ChildItem C:\windows\System32 -Include *.txt -Recurse | select -ExpandProperty FullName
