Get the list of files that are getting copied in PowerShell
If you just want to see that in console, use the -verbose switch:
copy-item -path $from -destination $to -verboseIf you want to get a list of files or directories:
$files = copy-item -path $from -destination $to -passthru | ?{$_ -is [system.io.fileinfo]}
$source=ls c:\temp *.*$i=1$source| %{ [int]$percent = $i / $source.count * 100 Write-Progress -Activity "Copying ... ($percent %)" -status $_ -PercentComplete $percent -verbose copy $_.fullName -Destination c:\test $i++}
I suggest to try it this way:
(Copy-Item -Verbose C:\SrcDir\*.* c:\DstDir 4>&1).MessageHere the messages go to the output stream/pipeline rather than the verbose stream/pipeline and so will work more generally such as in TFS task scripts.
