Get only filename from full path of a file

Question

I want to split the path and just save the file name test.xls in a new variable

$namearray = "C:\Users\z003m\Desktop\Service_Tickets\automationscript\vbs\Newfolder\test.xls"

Answer 1

Recommend using the built-in Split-Path:

$newVariable = Split-Path $namearray -Leaf
