When I use the command, "Get-CurrentUser" it outputs the username for the person running the script. The output looks like this:by RichardSiddaway at 2012-12-07 11:34:14
AuthenticationType : Kerberos
ImpersonationLevel : None
IsAuthenticated : True
IsGuest : False
IsSystem : False
IsAnonymous : False
Name : domainname\username
Owner : --------
User : -------
Groups : --------
Token : -------
I wanted to assign this entire output to a string. Was trying this:
[string]$User = Get-CurrentUser
The value of $User becomes "System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity" instead of a string of the output above. Does anyone know how I can save the output from Get-CurrentUser to a string variable?
