I’ve found a utility that I can use to handle my needs called FileTouch. Have to give up the idea of PowerShell. I’ve lost too many days. Thanks for the help but alas there is no solution to the PowerShell wildcard issue
@Gary, I can’t repro this issue in 6.0.4 in Win 10.

Is there something unusual about the language or the file system?
