List Startup folder contents, Server 2008

PowerShell Help
1

Hello,

I am trying to get the contents of all users’ Startup folders. I have created a small script that does this (below). The problem I ran into is that a few of the target servers are 2008 and do not have PS 3.0 or higher and does not seem to support applying a property by using the .PROPERTY method (Line 2, $allusers = $users.name)
I would appreciate any help and thank you in advance.

$users = get-childitem c:\users 
$allusers = $users.name

foreach ($alluser in $users)
{			
	ls "c:\users\$alluser\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup"
	}

Hi Santana,

You can use the Select-Object cmdlet to select name and you can directly take the string by using the -ExpandProperty Parameter

# $users = get-childitem c:\users 
# $allusers = $users.name

$allusers = get-childitem c:\users | Select-Object  -ExpandProperty  Name

foreach ($user in $allusers)
{			
	ls "c:\users\$user\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup"
	}
