Summary<\/b>: Learn the easy way to use Where<\/strong> or ForEach<\/strong> in Windows PowerShell 4.0.<\/p>\n

\"Hey, I am running Windows PowerShell 4.0 and I want to know the easy way to use Where<\/b> or ForEach<\/b>.<\/p>\n

\"Hey, In Windows PowerShell 4.0, object arrays have a built-in .Where() <\/b>and .ForEach()<\/b> methods.
          You can use these methods to filter objects or perform operations with each object in the array.<\/p>\n

For example, to use the Where()<\/b> method to filter for a specific process name, run this command:<\/p>\n

@(Get-Process).Where({ $PSItem.Name -eq ‘notepad’; }).<\/p>\n

To iterate over a list of objects in an array and perform an operation against them by using the ForEach()<\/b> method, run this command:<\/p>\n

@(Get-Process –Name notepad).ForEach({ Stop-Process -InputObject $PSItem; }).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
