Use Out-Gridview to Select, Sort and Copy Output

Posted on November 9, 2013November 9, 2013 by Alan

PowerShell 3 introduced one of my favorite Cmdlet, Out-Gridview.  It allows you to pipe your output to a GUI where you can sort, and add criteria to limit what is displayed.  But you can’t use CTRL-C to copy the results.  Frustrated?  There is an easy answer:

gwmi Win32_Process | Out-GridView -PassThru | clip
									

By using Out-Gridview -PassThru | Clip  you get an OK button where the selected results are piped to your clipboard.

All the scripts are saved as .txt files. Newer files have a “View Script” button which will let you save or open a script in notepad. For earlier posts, the easiest way to download with IE is to right click on the link and use “Save Target As”. Rename file from Name_ext.txt to Name.ext.
