Answer : How do I pass 2 parameters into a powershell script?


I would do it like this (with the script below).

Then you would run the command like this:

./Zip.ps1 -File "SomeFile.txt" -Archive "archive.7z"

Using the named parameters like this means it doesn't matter which order you enter the details.

Is that the kind of thing you had in mind?
