When starting out, help can be overwhelming. It is well made and laid out, but at first can be intimidating. One way to begin to overcome unfamiliarity with help regarding Cmdlets and how they run, is to use help. Yes, help for help. At the PowerShell prompt run "Help about_command_syntax". This will provide an excellent documentation included with PowerShell regarding what all the "stuff" in a Cmdlet's help file means. I recommend reading through this at least a few times in the beginning and refer back to it when a related question pops up. The "about" help entries can be some of the most helpful included (pun intended).
