$ tldr Where-Object

try on your machine

The "tldr" command is a utility command that is used to display concise and simplified summaries of other commands.

"Where-Object" is a command used in PowerShell, which is a command-line shell and scripting language developed by Microsoft. The purpose of the "Where-Object" command is to filter objects based on specified conditions. It allows you to select only the objects that match specific criteria from a larger set of objects.

For example, if you have a collection of files and you want to filter out only the files that were modified in the last week, you can use the "Where-Object" command along with the "LastWriteTime" property to achieve this. The command could look like this:

Get-ChildItem | Where-Object { $_.LastWriteTime -gt (Get-Date).AddDays(-7) }

In this example, "Get-ChildItem" retrieves a collection of all the files in the current location, and the output is then piped to the "Where-Object" command. The condition within the curly braces specifies that only files with a "LastWriteTime" greater than the date and time of one week ago should be selected.
