PowerShell variable assignment¶

In PowerShell, variables are designated by the $ symbol, followed by the variable name. For example, to capture the result of a command, one can assign the output to a variable such as $A.^[600-developer-learn-powershell01.md]

A common pattern involves assigning the output of a cmdlet, such as Get-Process, to a variable to access its properties and methods later.^[600-developer-learn-powershell01.md]

For instance, retrieving a specific process by its ID and storing it in a variable allows for further inspection of that object's properties, such as StartInfo or EnvironmentVariables.^[600-developer-learn-powershell01.md]
