Hello,
This post is regarding the get-networkstatistics.ps1 script.
I run the command once to implement the function (I have debug/trace level set to two with 'set-psdebug -trace 2'):
I then attempt to run the script against the local computer:
I then ran the same script against another machine.
Execution policy is set to unrestricted during the commands above:
Can someone tell me what the prerequisites are for this script to run successfully?

I have a Powershell-script to deploy windows updates every other month on PatchTuesday.
However I don't find a way to schedule it (via Powershell every other month). Please advise how this can be done.
$TriggerSchedule = New-ScheduledTaskTrigger -At "$ScheduledDatePatchTuesday" .... every other month

Hi all
I am having difficulties trying to uninstall software from targeted PCs. For my initial research, i was testing uninstalling a software on my machine via WMIC. WMIC works great on a standalone device however when i tried to uninstall a software on another machine remotely i get an error
i tried using the txt document method as well and same error
Any ideas how i can connect to a pc remotely with wmic? i tried connecting with test device's IP address as well but that didn't change anything
If wmic does not work, can you advise what i need to do in powershell to achieve this?
Thanks in advance

Hi all. I would like to export my local OST file to a PST using a script (VB or otherwise). Is this possible?
To be clear, I know how to manually export my local OST to a PST (using Outlook 2013). But I would like to carry this out via a script, if possible.
The ultimate objective of this particular task is to automate the process of the OST-to-PST export, and have it carried out on a weekly schedule.
I'm not asking for anyone to provide me with any actual code. I just want to know if this would be possible via some kind of Windows script, and if so, perhaps a nudge in the right direction :-)
I am running Win 10, x64.
Thanks in advance.
Hi all. I would like to know how I can query the size of a file that is actively being written to. I've opened the file using:
$fdFile = New-Object System.IO.StreamWriter(New-Object IO.FileStream($FilePath, $mode, $access, $sharing))
When writing to the file I'd like the check the size of the file in order to determine if I need to roll the log not. The file will be in an open state when I want to check this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, below is the code and when I run it, I get an error which I don't know how to fix? Or understand why it is happening?
function do-something {
[CmdletBinding()]
param(
[Parameter(Mandatory=$true,ValueFromPipeLine=$true,Position=0)][String[]]$ServerName
)
[String]$Name = 'TestName'
[String]$Site = 'TestSite'
[String]$Path = "C:\Temp\$Site"
foreach ($Server in $ServerName) {
Invoke-Command -ComputerName $Server -ScriptBlock {
New-Item -ItemType directory -path $Path
}
}
}
But If I run the debugger to see what's happening then the variables do have preset values???
[DBG]: PS C:\>> $Name TestName [DBG]: PS C:\>> $Site TestSite [DBG]: PS C:\>> $Path C:\Temp\TestSite
Can someone please help me with this issue and also explain why of it.
I'm having an struggle with two scripts, the scripts makes a check on users AD values and runs perfect from Powershell as the user.
when i then add the scripts to Task Scheduler, the one script runs as intended and send a e-mail, the other script just opens a notepad with the csv file, but does not send the e-mail, it does not throw an exception on the send mail process, so i'm quite confused,
as they both work in PS but only the one works on Task Scheduler.
The working script:
