This lesson from Windows PowerShell Fundamentals course Jeff Hicks shows to take advantage of the great Help feature in PowerShell.
“Help” is the shortcut for the get-help cmdlet, and it will ask PowerShell for information it knows, for example, related to service. Type in “help service” and you will see a list of related commands, such as get-service, stop-service, start-service and so on. Jeff Hicks goes on to show how to drilldown through more and more information about the syntax and pararmeters of specific commands.
