How can I use Windows PowerShell to find the titles of windows?
Use Get-Process and display the title of the processes for windows by looking at
the MainWindowTitle property, for example:
Get-Process | Where {
$_.MainWindowTitle
} |
Select-Object ProcessName, MainWindowTitle
ProcessName MainWindowTitle

ok so im trying to use this code here
#====================================
$XN = Get-Process -Name “xnview” | Where-Object {$_.mainWindowTitle} | Select-Object MainWindowTitle
write-host [$XN]
#====================================
to show the window name but it outputs
#====================================
[@{MainWindowTitle=Desired Window}]
#====================================
my question is is there a way to get it to display only the part after the = so it looks like
#====================================
[Desired Window]
#====================================
any help would be appreciated
