Matt, The only output I get from your script is the column headers, and no errors. I've copied it below, reformatted slightly, for my own comprehension - so I might have munged it somehow in the copying to my PS ISE session. (Of course, I changed it to C:\temp instead of C:\Windows\Temp).
$Computers = get-adcomputer -filter { name -like "us-it*" } | select Name #put column names on csv file Out-File c:\temp\RegValues.csv -InputObject "ComputerName,RegistryKey,Name,Value" -Append foreach($computer in $Computers.Name) { $wmi=[wmiclass]"\\$($computer)\root\default:stdRegProv" foreach($name in ($wmi.EnumValues(2147483650,"Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run")).sNames){"$($computer),Run,$($name)," + $(($wmi.GetExpandedStringValue(2147483650,"Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run",$name)).sValue) | Out-File c:\windows\temp\RegValues.csv -Append} foreach($name in ($wmi.EnumValues(2147483650,"Software\Wow6432node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run")).sNames){"$($computer),x64Run,$($name)," + $(($wmi.GetExpandedStringValue(2147483650,"Software\Wow6432node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run",$name)).sValue) | Out-File c:\windows\temp\RegValues.csv -Append} foreach($name in ($wmi.EnumValues(2147483650,"Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce")).sNames){"$($computer),RunOnce,$($name)," + $(($wmi.GetExpandedStringValue(2147483650,"Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce",$name)).sValue) | Out-File c:\windows\temp\RegValues.csv -Append} foreach($name in ($wmi.EnumValues(2147483650,"Software\Wow6432node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce")).sNames){"$($computer),x64RunOnce,$($name)," + $(($wmi.GetExpandedStringValue(2147483650,"Software\Wow6432node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce",$name)).sValue) | Out-File c:\windows\temp\RegValues.csv -Append} } On Fri, Mar 20, 2015 at 9:53 AM, Kelley, Matthew <kelle...@med.umich.edu> wrote: > I understand.
