I am trying to append to two log files at the same time. I am currently having to repeat the output and the append command >> twice which is giving me repeat code:

$log1 = "C:\log1.txt" 
$log2 = "C:\log2.txt"
$output = "Some output to be logged" 
$output >> $log1 
$output >> $log2

I have looked into using the Tee-Object command and have come up with the following:

$output | Tee $log1 >> $log2

But this overwrites the first ($log1) and appends to the second ($log2). So my question is how I get $log1 not to be overwritten just appended too?

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Try with the Add-Content cmdlet:

$output | Add-Content -Path $log1,$log2
