Hey Bryan I am a student trying to learn Powershell. It seems very overwhelming to me. I am trying to find out how to use a copy module script to create a folder. I am having trouble understanding this. you have any videos that could help
Hi Elliott, You can create a folder with the statement New-Item -Name 'myfolder' -ItemType directory Replace 'myfolder' with the name if the folder you want. For a nice blog about adding things like tests for the folder existence, see blogs.technet.microsoft.com/heyscriptingguy/2015/03/08/weekend-scripter-use-powershell-to-create-folder/ Remember you can test commands out directly in the PowerShell CLI. Hope that helps.
Also, little trick, you can use Show-Command to provide a GUI for a cmdlet, i.e. "Show-Command New-Item" is like getting a wizard to help construct the command.
Your video would be very helpful if you would have spoken a little slow. It is okay for a native English speaker But for whom just a beginner is in English and in Power Shell, it would be confusing and fast. However, thank you very much!
Great introduction, exactly what I wanted to learn.
Loved it.. really it is what I was looking for. To the point and greatly organized.
so happy I stumbled upon your videos

A fair point. Being from Boston, my speech is even fast for a native English speaker. I'll try to keep that in mind. Thanks.
@@BryanCafferky I appreciate it. Thank you.
slow the video down yourself...
Haha, I did not even notice he was speaking fast even though I have never been to the USA (I'm from Germany).
Im on a pinch for time so im watching this at 2x. Working great for me!
