Jumping around to certain spots in script

Question

Is there a way to make a script jump to a specific spot like :GOTO in command prompt? I wanted to make the script jump to the beginning when it is ended.

$tag1 =         


        

Answer 1

Another variation on the script with some ideas taken from @mjolinor. I also switched away from using systeminfo because at least on my computer, it's much slower than using the applicable WMI query.

while (1) {
    $tag1 = Read-Host 'Enter tag # or Q to quit'
    if ($tag1 -eq "Q") {
        break;
    }
    sc.exe \\$tag1 start RemoteRegistry;
    start-sleep -seconds 2
    $OSInfo = get-wmiobject -class win32_operatingsystem -computername $tag1;
    $OSInfo | Format-Table -Property @{Name="OS Name";Expression={$_.Caption}},@{Name="System Boot Time";Expression={$_.ConvertToDateTime($_.LastBootUpTime)}},@{Name="System Uptime (Days)";Expression={[math]::Round((New-TimeSpan -Start $_.converttodatetime($_.LastBootUpTime)|select-object -expandproperty totaldays),2)}} -AutoSize;
    Get-EventLog system -computername $tag1 -InstanceId 2147489657 -Newest 10 | format-table EventID,TimeWritten,MachineName -AutoSize
}

I'm not certain that WMI needs remote registry, so you might be able to eliminate the sc.exe line and sleep altogether. Unless you need it for something else.
