Trying to display the contents of a folder including the size, date modified, and length - powershell

Question

This script is working so far, but I need the size to be in KB. It works as well, but when I call for a list of files it just outputs the KB size below the list, instead of within the list of itself.
$fileList = Get-ChildItem "E:\"
foreach($file in $fileList) {
ls $file | select -Property fullName, LastWriteTime, length
}
foreach($file in $fileList) {
Write-Host((Get-Item $file).length/1KB) | Sort-Object fullName, LastWriteTime, length
}
I want to see how I can get the KB size to populate the list under length, instead of the default file size being displayed.

Answer 1

You can Select-Object to get only the properties you want:
Get-ChildItem "E:\" | Select-Object fullName,LastWriteTime,Length
FullName LastWriteTime Length
-------- ------------- ------
C:\folder\cluster_totals.xlsx 14/12/2017 15:11:40 9382
C:\folder\IAG.xlsx 23/11/2017 11:05:12 13054
C:\folder\Offline.xml 30/10/2017 16:14:24 21503
And then use Calculated Properties to change the formatting of the Length property into KB.
Get-ChildItem "E:\" | Select-Object fullName,LastWriteTime,#{Name="KB";Expression={"{0:N0}" -f ($_.Length / 1KB)}}
Which will give you something like this:
FullName LastWriteTime KBytes
-------- ------------- ------
C:\folder\cluster_totals.xlsx 14/12/2017 15:11:40 9
C:\folder\IAG.xlsx 23/11/2017 11:05:12 13
C:\folder\Offline.xml 30/10/2017 16:14:24 21
