在 PowerShell 脚本中传递 arguments 时尝试转义括号

Question

I made a PowerShell script that will send a toast notification via/arguments. In the script, I use the param function in the beginning of the script something like....this

param($UserID)

Now I open a command prompt to load a PowerShell script and adding these arguments

powershell C:\file\in\directory\PowershellScript.ps1 -UserID "Mikey (TEST)"

When I sent the prompt over to PowerShell, it gave me this red error that says

TEST : The term 'TEST' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function,
script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path
was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.
At line:1 char:64

Assumingly the parentheses ( ) could be the culprit as PowerShell is thinking of loading a module of some sort instead of applying as a string value. I even tried escaping the parentheses using the backslash \(TEST\) but that didn't work either as it said TEST\: The term 'TEST\' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. .

Is there something I'm missing or something part of a script I should add to?

Answer 1

Use single quotes inside the ps command:

powershell C:\file\in\directory\PowershellScript.ps1 -UserID 'Mikey (TEST)'
