Start-Process With Arguments

1. The `Start-Process` cmdlet is used in PowerShell to start a new process or application.
2. To run a process with arguments, you can use the `-ArgumentList` parameter followed by a list of arguments separated by commas.
3. Example: `Start-Process -FilePath “C:Pathtoapplication.exe” -ArgumentList “arg1”, “arg2”, “arg3″`
4. You can also use variables instead of hardcoded arguments.
5. Example: `$arg1 = “value1”; Start-Process -FilePath “C:Pathtoapplication.exe” -ArgumentList $arg1`
6. If an argument contains spaces or special characters, you should enclose it in double quotes.
7. Example: `Start-Process -FilePath “C:Pathtoapplication.exe” -ArgumentList “arg1”, “arg with spaces”`
8. If an argument value contains double quotes, you need to escape them with a backslash.
9. Example: `Start-Process -FilePath “C:Pathtoapplication.exe” -ArgumentList “arg1”, “arg “with”” quotes””`
