explore its structure? There must be a simple way. I used to use ConvertTo-JSON. This is fine up to a point but what if you just wish to search for strings or look for objects with a cartain name or value? What if you need their path so you can reference them? It isn't plain-sailing. In the ISE, the intellisense will help you a lot but I want more and I want to do it in script rather than the IDE
