Best Answer

This is what you want (*):

$vm = Get-SCVirtualMachine -Name VMNAME
$vmCheckpoints = $vm.VMCheckpoints
foreach($checkpoint in $vmCheckpoints) {
  Write-Host $checkpoint
}

(*) I'm going on memory. I don't have immediate access to SCVMM at the moment.

Powershell – (Powershell) Method to return a list of groups where a specific user has ‘write member’ security

There are two problems here.

The CMDlet Get-QADPermission is writing directly to the console during execution which is why you're seeing Permissions for: .... Since your pipeline is writing to the same output, it all gets mixed together. Store the output from your pipeline to a variable instead.
When you pipe the group into Get-QADPermission, you're throwing away the group object and getting a permissions object instead. If you want to keep the original object, you need to filter with Where-Object.

Also, be careful with Get-QADPermission. If you only query for WriteProperty, it won't return results with both Read+Write access. Usually you want to query for both. And in most cases, you also want to use -Inherited to get permissions granted from parent OU's. If you're really looking for once-off permissions, then you can ignore this switch.

function Test-UserCanModifyGroupsInOU ($Username, $OU)
{
  $results = Get-QADGroup -SearchScope 'OneLevel' -SearchRoot $OU |
    Where-Object {
      $_ | Get-QADPermission -Rights ReadProperty,WriteProperty -Property member -Account $username
    } |
    Select @{Name="User";Expression={$username}}, @{Name="Group";Expression={$_.Name}}
  $results | Write-Output
  $results | Export-Csv "$username.csv"
}

@("bob","sally") |
  ForEach-Object {
    Test-UserCanModifyGroupsInOU -Username $_ -OU 'domain.org.com/path/to/OU'
  }

Also note that this only works for permissions on specific properties. It won't return results for a user that has "Full Control" on the group, even though they're stil allowed to modify the member attribute.

Iis – How to force powershell to refresh cached data? Get-ChildItem results for PSDrive not current

I could reproduce this behavior on IIS 8.5, it looks like a bug to me.

Using WMI worked for me in the same PowerShell session where Get-ChildItem returned the out-dated PID

(gwmi -NS 'root\WebAdministration' -class 'WorkerProcess' | ? AppPoolName -eq $pool | Select -First 1).ProcessId

This returned the correct pid for the first WorkerProcess
