PARAMETERS
    -Credential 
        Specifies a user account that has permission to perform this action. The default is the current user.
        
        Type a user name, such as User01 or Domain01\User01, or enter a PSCredential object, such as one generated by 
        the Get-Credential cmdlet. If you type a user name, this cmdlet prompts you for a password.
        
        This parameter is not supported by any providers installed with Windows PowerShell.
        
        Required?                    false
        Position?                    named
        Default value                None
        Accept pipeline input?       True (ByPropertyName)
        Accept wildcard characters?  false
        
    -LiteralPath 
        Specifies the path to be resolved. The value of the LiteralPath parameter is used exactly as it is typed. No 
        characters are interpreted as wildcard characters. If the path includes escape characters, enclose it in 
        single quotation marks. Single quotation marks tell Windows PowerShell not to interpret any characters as 
        escape sequences.
        
        Required?                    true
        Position?                    named
        Default value                None
        Accept pipeline input?       True (ByPropertyName)
        Accept wildcard characters?  false
        
    -Path 
        Specifies the Windows PowerShell path to resolve. This parameter is required. You can also pipe a path string 
        to Resolve-Path .
        
        Required?                    true
        Position?                    0
        Default value                None
        Accept pipeline input?       True (ByPropertyName, ByValue)
        Accept wildcard characters?  false
        
    -Relative []
        Indicates that this cmdlet returns a relative path.

NOTES
    
    
        The cmdlets that contain the Path noun (the Path cmdlets) work with path names and return the names in a 
        concise format that all Windows PowerShell providers can interpret. They are designed for use in programs and 
        scripts where you want to display all or part of a path name in a particular format. Use them as you would use 
        Dirname , Normpath , Realpath , Join *, or other path manipulators. You can use the Path * cmdlets with 
        several providers. These include the FileSystem, Registry, and Certificate providers.  Resolve-Path * is 
        designed to work with the data exposed by any provider. To list the providers available in your session, type 
        `Get-PSProvider`. For more information, see about_Providers.
    
    Example 1: Resolve the current path
    
    PS C:\>Resolve-Path ~
    Path
    ----
    C:\Users\User01
    
    This command resolves the path represented by the tilde character (~), which represents the home path of a file 
    system drive, such as C:.
    Example 2: Resolve the path of the Windows folder
    
    PS C:\>Resolve-Path -Path "windows"
    Path
    ----
    C:\Windows
    
    When run from the root of the C: drive, this command returns the path of the Windows folder in the C: drive.
    Example 3: Get all paths in the Windows folder
    
    PS C:\>"C:\windows\*" | Resolve-Path
    
    This command returns all of the folders in the C:\Windows folder. The command uses a pipeline operator (|) to send 
    a path string to Resolve-Path .
    Example 4: Resolve a UNC path
    
    PS C:\>Resolve-Path -Path "\\Server01\public"
    
    This command resolves a Universal Naming Convention (UNC) path and returns the shares in the path.
    Example 5: Get relative paths
    
    PS C:\>Resolve-Path -Path "c:\prog*" -Relative
    ..\Program Files
    ..\Program Files (x86) 
    ..\programs.txt
    
    This command returns relative paths for the directories at the root of the C: drive.
    Example 6: Resolve a path that contains brackets
    
    PS C:\>Resolve-Path -LiteralPath 'test[xml]'
    
    This command resolves the path of the Test[xml] subfolder of the current folder. It uses the LiteralPath parameter 
    to indicate that the brackets are not regular expression characters.
