Differences between PowerShell ISE and Powershell.exe when using IO.FileSystemWatcher -


i have following powershell script running fine in ise, mean runs , waits files created before processing them. problem try run command line exits @ $oncreated = register-objectevent $fsw created -sourceidentifier filecreated -action call.

how can run commandline indefinitely e.g. waiting , processing each new file meets criteria in target folder?

i must missing something, first attempt @ using powershell advice on how working cmd line appreciated. if have suggestions on improvements i'd love hear them too.
