PS C:\temp> $source = "c:\temp"
> PS C:\temp> $d = [datetime](Get-ItemProperty -Path $source -Name
> LastWriteTime).lastwritetime
> PS C:\temp> $source2 = "C:\temp\7-Zip"
> PS C:\temp> $d2 = [datetime](Get-ItemProperty -Path $source2 -Name
> LastWriteTime).lastwritetime
> PS C:\temp> Compare-Object $d $d2
