$users = get-aduser -LDAPFilter "(name=*guest*)" -Properties canonicalname | Select-Object name, Canonicalname
TIA

If you’re talking about Write-Progress then you wouldn’t.
You need to “manually” trigger Write-Progress.
So if you e.g. want to process the users in a foreach or similar you could do.
foreach($u in $users) { $percent = $users.indexOf($u) / $users.length * 100 Write-Progress -Activity "Processing users" -Status "$percent% Complete" -PrecentComplete $percent }
But as Get-ADUser will be processed inside the cmdlet you don’t really have that option and the select is just a filter on what to pull from the output of Get-ADUser.
But maybe you’re talking about a different progress bar?
Thanks think i have got this now
Try this
$i = 0 $adUser = (Get-ADUser -Filter *).name foreach($user in $adUser){ $i++ Write-Host $user Write-Progress -Activity "Getting AD Users..." -Status "Status:" -PercentComplete (($i/$adUser.Count)*100) }
