Format-Streams

18 Nov: PowerShell – Working with Format-Table in Verbose, Debug, Output Streams

As you may know, PowerShell has multiple streams. Write-Output, Write-Error, Write-Warning, Write-Verbose, Write-Debug, and Write-Information. It also has Write-Host which until PowerShell 5 was a bit special. Since PowerShell 5.1 it’s a wrapper over Write-Information, so it doesn’t kill puppies anymore. While I could spend the next five pages trying to give my best and describe those streams, there are already many articles describing them in detail. Please check the following link if you need that information.
