Comments on: Get-ChildItem is not dir! http://www.jansveld.net/powershell/2008/06/get-childitem-is-not-dir/ Observations and examples of PowerShell in the real world Thu, 08 Dec 2011 14:31:09 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Stephen Mills http://www.jansveld.net/powershell/2008/06/get-childitem-is-not-dir/comment-page-1/#comment-20 Stephen Mills Thu, 03 Jul 2008 23:05:06 +0000 http://www.jansveld.net/powershell/?p=6#comment-20 I think you were thinking about filter and not include. If you do the same example you used but using -include, you don't get any results at all. But it works as you said if you use -filter. Filter is also positionally the second parameter for Get-ChildItem with path being the first. Nice comparison though, I hadn't realized the speed difference between the 2 ways before.
