    Dear All,

    I have a tag in web.config like this

    <assemblies>
    <!--<add assembly="Telerik.Reporting, Version=4.2.10.1221, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=A9D7983DFCC261BE" />-->
    </assemblies>

    I need a powershell  script that can uncomment this tag.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    We do not write scripts on request.

    Get-Content web.config | 
    ForEach-Object{
        $_ -replace '<!--<add assembly="Telerik.Reporting, Version=4.2.10.1221, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=A9D7983DFCC261BE" />--></assemblies>','<add assembly="Telerik.Reporting, Version=4.2.10.1221, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=A9D7983DFCC261BE"/></assemblies>'
    }

    Hi Sammy,

    Thanks for your question.

    I agree with jrv's reply. Text-manipulation using regex. Find something unique in the line you want to uncomment.

    After you replace it, you can also use "Set-Content" cmdlet to replace new content your web.config file.

    Set-Content -path web.config

    Best regards,

    Lee

    Just do it.
