I wanted to save all the contents of the nested loop into a rip.txt, however it does not save properly. Either there are no contents inside the file or only the 1st row of contents are saved to a file

CodePudding user response:
Your code can be reduced to this:
$words = Get-Content D:\words.txt
Get-Content D:\row.txt | ForEach-Object {
foreach($word in $words) {
"$_. $word"
}
"`n"
} | Set-Content D:\rip.txt
The main issue is the use of Write-Host
which writes to the Information Stream not to the Success Stream.
