Hello All,
This post will cover the small scripts that are used by the System Administrators/SCCM Admins/Desktop Administrator in their daily life. I am not a PowerShell expert and have just started learning it. This post is also a kind of repository/reference point for my work.
Folder Existence and File copy script
Below script achieves the following:
- Check for the existence of a folder at the provided directory path.
- If the folder is found - required files are copied to it from the source location (in this example source location is the local folder where the script is running from). We can also add the -Path parameter and provide the actual source location of the file to be copied from.
- If the folder is not found, the script will create a folder and then copy the file to that folder.
Script:
$Folder= 'C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\WSUS'#Path of 'WSUS' folder - the folder that we are looking for.#$Con= 'C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows' #Directory, in which the 'WSUS' folder will be created#If (Test-Path -path $Folder) {copy-item "ABC.ini" -Destination $folder #ABC.ini is the example file - can be replaced by any file. -Path parameter can also be used if file not present in the local directory.#} else {New-Item -Path $Con -Name "WSUS" -ItemType "Directory"copy-item "ABC.ini" -Destination $folder}
