LONG DESCRIPTION
PowerShell core Cmdlets are a set of predefined Cmdlets that provide a consistent user experience when accessing different data stores through PowerShell Providers. For example, you can use the Get-ChildItem Cmdlet whether you're accessing the Windows file system or the Windows Registry.

PowerShell provides the following core Cmdlets, which are listed by the Cmdlet nouns:
