 ## SHORT DESCRIPTION
-Explains how to redirect output from  Windows PowerShell® to text files.
 
+Explains how to redirect output from PowerShell to text files.
 
 ## LONG DESCRIPTION
-By default, Windows PowerShell sends its command output to the  Windows PowerShell console. However, you can direct the output to a text file, and you can redirect error output to the regular output stream.
 
-You can use the following methods to redirect output:

-- Use the Out-File cmdlet, which sends command output to a text file. Typically, you use the Out-File cmdlet when you need to use its parameters, such as the Encoding, Force, Width, or NoClobber parameters.

 The syntax of the redirection operators is as follows:
 
-
 ```
 <input> <operator> [<path>\]<file>
 ```
 
+If the specified file already exists, the redirection operators that do not
+append data (> and n>) overwrite the current contents of the file without
+warning. However, if the file is a read-only, hidden, or system file, the
+redirection fails. The append redirection operators (>> and n>>) do not write
+to a read-only file, but they append content to a system or hidden file.
 
-If the specified file already exists, the redirection operators that do not append data (> and n>) overwrite the current contents of the file without warning. However, if the file is a read-only, hidden, or system file, the redirection fails. The append redirection operators (>> and n>>) do not write to a read-only file, but they append content to a system or hidden file.
-
-To force the redirection of content to a read-only, hidden, or system file, use the Out-File cmdlet with its Force parameter. When you are writing to files, the redirection operators use Unicode encoding. If the file has a different encoding, the output might not be formatted correctly. To redirect content to non-Unicode files, use the Out-File cmdlet with its Encoding parameter.
