Export-FormatData

Short description
Saves formatting data from the current session in a formatting file.

Syntax


Description
The Export-FormatData cmdlet creates Windows PowerShell formatting files (format.ps1xml) from the formatting object
    s in the current session. It takes the ExtendedTypeDefinition objects that Get-FormatData returns and saves them in
     a file in XML format.   
    
    Windows PowerShell uses the data in formatting files (format.ps1xml) to generate the default display of Microsoft .
    NET Framework objects in the session. You can view and edit the formatting files and use the Update-FormatData cmdl
    et to add the formatting data to a session.
