Subject: PowerShell: Scan to find length of path/file names?
Posted: Thu Nov 10, 2016 8:23 am (GMT -6)
Depending on what to do with the result, I would do it perhaps with PowerShell:
zzzPathLen.csv
- - -
Clarifying:
dir -rec *.txt |
select FullName, @{L="PathLen";E={($_.FullName).Length}} |
sort PathLen -desc |
Export-Csv zzzPathLen.csv
Get-ChildItem -Recurse *.txt |
Select-Object FullName, @{ Label="PathLen"; Expression={($_.FullName).Length} } |
Sort-Object PathLen -Descending |
Export-Csv zzzPathLen.csv
- - -
Alternative:
Get-ChildItem -Recurse *.txt |
Select-Object FullName, @{ Label="PathLen"; Expression={($_.FullName).Length} } |
Sort-Object PathLen -Descending |
Select-Object -First 15 |
Export-Csv zzzPathLen.csv
or rather:
Get-ChildItem -Recurse *.txt |
Select-Object FullName, @{ Label="PathLen"; Expression={($_.FullName).Length} } |
Sort-Object PathLen |
Select-Object -Last 15 |
Export-Csv zzzPathLen.csv
Just an idea![Cool]()
