Getting the Username of an Active Directory user, not the IdentityReference. From the permissions of a folder
I am trying to return the username from the Security tab within a folder's properties. The user-friendly name next to the IdentityReference in brackets.
This is the current script I am using returns the IdentityReference of all attached active directory users of a given path. I was just wondering if there was a way to return that Username rather than the IdentityReference?
%SystemRoot%system32WindowsPowerShellv1.0powershell.exe -Command "& {(get-acl <path>).access | ft IdentityReference -auto}"
powershell

isn't the part after the slash the user [or group] name? [frown] it looks like that is the case on my win7 system ...

The system and Admin are the same but the third one isn't, censored it because it has my name, but they are different.

so ... what connection is there between the "your name" item and "your user name"? [grin] without any relationship ... it cannot be derived.

Why not just split on the '' and take the second position
((get-acl 'E:New Folder').access).IdentityReference
IdentityReference
-----------------
LabWS01TestAccount
BUILTINAdministrators
...
(((get-acl 'E:New Folder').access).IdentityReference -split '\')[1]
# Results
TestAccount
The above is on Win10 1809.
