ConvertTo-Csv Output without quotes

Question

I am using ConvertTo-Csv to get comma separated output

 get-process | convertto-csv -NoTypeInformation -Delimiter \",\"

It out

Answer 1

This is pretty similar to the accepted answer but it helps to prevent unwanted removal of "real" quotes.

$delimiter = ','
Get-Process | ConvertTo-Csv -Delimiter $delimiter -NoTypeInformation | foreach { $_ -replace '^"','' -replace "`"$delimiter`"",$delimiter -replace '"$','' }

This will do the following:

• Remove quotes that begin a line
• Remove quotes that end a line
• Replace quotes that wrap a delimiter with the delimiter alone.

Therefore, the only way this would go wrong is if one of the values actually contained not only quotes, but specifically a quote-delimiter-quote sequence, which hopefully should be pretty uncommon.
