Select-After

SYNOPSIS

Select objects after a given datetime.

SYNTAX

Select-After -InputObject <PSObject> [-After] <DateTime> [-Property <String>]
[<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION

Select-After is a simplified version of Select-Object. The premise is that you can pipe a collection of objects to this command and select objects after a given datetime, based on a property, like LastWriteTime, which is the default.

EXAMPLES

Example 1

PS C:\> Get-ChildItem c:\work -file | Select-After "11/1/2022"


    Directory: C:\work

Mode                 LastWriteTime         Length Name
----                 -------------         ------ ----
-a---           11/4/2022 11:36 AM           5008 ipperf.csv

Select all objects that have been modified after 11/1/2022. This example is using the default -Property value of LastWriteTime.

Example 2

PS C:\> Get-Process | After (Get-Date).AddMinutes(-10) -Property StartTime

 NPM(K)    PM(M)      WS(M)     CPU(s)      Id  SI ProcessName
 ------    -----      -----     ------      --  -- -----------
      8     1.49       7.17       0.00   33248   0 SearchFilterHost
     12     2.46      12.99       0.02   15328   0 SearchProtocolHost
      8     2.60       8.58       0.03    9756   0 svchost
     76    20.27      39.93       2.14   22976   0 svchost
      8     1.53       7.29       0.00   29752   0 svchost

Get all processes where the StartTime property value is within the last 10 minutes. This example is using the "after" alias.
