Question

I currently have the following

Get-ChildItem -recurse -include file.ext | Select-String -pattern "c:" | group path | select name | export-csv results.csv

If I wanted to find things with both “c:” and “d:” how would I write that logic?

Thanks

Select-String takes a regex, so you can just use

Select-String '[cd]:'

which will match either c: or d:.

For more complex ones you can use an alternation construct:

Select-String '(mike|sally):'
