I'm a complete beginner to Powershell and scripting, and have been successfully been using Out-GridView to display some properties of the files I have in my directories using the following:
dir D:\Folder1\$type -Recurse | Select Fullname,Directory,LastWriteTime | out-gridview
where I specifiy the file extension with $type = "*.pdf"
for instance.
I would also like to start comparing files using hashcodes so I have tried this command:
ls | Get-Filehash
However, I would like to have the hashcodes in the output window as a seperate column with out-gridview. Is this possible? I've tried
dir D:\Folder1\$type -Recurse | Select Fullname,Directory,LastWriteTime,Filehash | out-gridview
and
dir D:\Folder1\$type -Recurse | Select Fullname,Directory,LastWriteTime | Get-Filehash | out-gridview
Of course neither of these work.
Does anyone have a way of generating hashcodes for a specific file extension only?
Many thanks in advance!
