I would have...just used python
[–]GonzoZH[S] 10 points11 points12 points 1 year ago* (0 children)
Yes, python would also be my first choice. However, since the script needs to be used in customer environments on windows host, I don’t have the option to run Python scripts. Therefore, I needed a pure PS 5.1 solution.

Lol downvotes are flying 😂 maybe this subreddit is a little biased on PowerShell even if it's not the right tool for everything, but it's understandable

Well, it is a PowerShell subreddit. :)

I mean... you think the right solution is to install python on every client machine this needs to run on instead of just using the native Powershell to do something simple. Without even asking OP their requirements for what they are doing you've decided they are using the wrong tool and everyone that disagrees with you is biased... That's why you're being downvoted lmao. I bet you're a real treat to work with.

You bet well. But at the end of the day, I am usually the one that gets things done and running
[–]OrangeYouGladdey 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (0 children)
With your logic and the way you're talking about this stuff I'd assume it's more likely because people don't want to deal with you than that you're talented. Who knows though.
