When you want to read the entire contents of a text file, the easiest way is to use the built-in Get-Content function. When you execute this command, the contents of this file will be displayed in your command prompt or the PowerShell ISE screen, depending on where you execute it.
I will give you an all PowerShell answer. You can use Add-Content or Set-Content cmdlets.
Set-Content overwrites the target file and Add-Content appends to the file.
Set-Content -Value "Test1" -Path C:\Scripts\Scratch\test.txt Add-Content -Value "Test" -Path C:\Scripts\Scratch\test.txt Or, you can also use Out-File.
"Test" | Out-File -FilePath C:\Scripts\Scratch\test.txt -Append If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
