It may seem like a little thing, but the Get-Help cmdlet in PowerShell has some features you may not be aware of. I’m always using the -full parameter to see all the help information, primarily so I can see the examples. Well Get-Help has a -examples switch which won’t display syntax help, but it will show you all the examples from the help file. Try these commands to see for yourself
help get-wmiobject -examples
help get-process -examples
