How to change an output formed by hashstables Powershell - powershell

Question

I am storing the following query value in a variable:
$unquotedPaths = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Service | Select-Object -Property Name,DisplayName,PathName,StartMode | Select-String "auto"
The problem starts when i print that variable becouse the variable takes from the query an object which is formed by hashtables like in this output:
PS C:\Users\pc> Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Service | Select-Object -Property Name,DisplayName,PathName,StartMode | Select-String "auto"
#{Name=AGMService; DisplayName=Adobe Genuine Monitor Service; PathName="C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\AdobeGCClient\AGMService.exe"; StartMode=Auto}
#{Name=AGSService; DisplayName=Adobe Genuine Software Integrity Service; PathName="C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\AdobeGCClient\AGSService.exe"; StartMode=Auto}
#{Name=asComSvc; DisplayName=ASUS Com Service; PathName=C:\Program Files (x86)\ASUS\AXSP\1.01.02\atkexComSvc.exe; StartMode=Auto}
#{Name=AudioEndpointBuilder; DisplayName=Compilador de extremo de audio de Windows; PathName=C:\WINDOWS\System32\svchost.exe -k LocalSystemNetworkRestricted -p; StartMode=Auto}
How i can get and output like this:
Name DisplayName PathName Startmode
---------- ------------- ------------ ------------
ExampleName ExampleDisplayName C:\Example Auto

Select-String is meant to search and match patterns among strings and files, If you need to filter an object you can use Where-Object:
$unquotedPaths = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Service |
Where-Object StartMode -EQ Auto |
Select-Object -Property Name,DisplayName,PathName,StartMode
If the filtering required more complex logic you would need to change from Comparison Statement to Script Block, for example:
$unquotedPaths = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Service | Where-Object {
$_.StartMode -eq 'Auto' -and $_.State -eq 'Running'
} | Select-Object -Property Name,DisplayName,PathName,StartMode
