Write output to a text file in PowerShell

Question

I\'ve compared two files using the following code:

Compare-Object $(Get-Content c:\\user\\documents\\List1.txt) $(Get-Content c:\\user\\documents\\List2.txt)         


        

Answer 1

Another way this could be accomplished is by using the Start-Transcript and Stop-Transcript commands, respectively before and after command execution. This would capture the entire session including commands.

Start-Transcript

Stop-Transcript

For this particular case Out-File is probably your best bet though.
