How to Convert a CSV to TXT in PowerShell
Microsoft Windows PowerShell is a task automation system that provides a command-line interface and a specialized script language. PowerShell may be used for file-level operations from a DOS-like command prompt. Because a CSV file is an ASCII file, and so is the text (TXT) file format, there is no need to convert the file. Simply changing the file extension using the "Rename-Item" cmdlet in PowerShell will change the CSV file to a TXT file.
