many improvements to "Get-BitLockerInfo.ps1"

[jantari]

Hi, I really liked your script "Get-BitLockerInfo.ps1" and saw some opportunities for improvements too!

• You can now specify an alternative path to psexec if needed
• Test connection to target computer before trying to query it (fails faster now if target is offline)
• Parsing of the output of manage-bde is now more robust, simplified and works in Windows languages other than english (tested in German here, works!)
• Should be faster overall too, relevant if you ever try to query many machines at once

I hope the changes are welcome, if you have any questions just ask before merging!

That would be possible but it is a little more involved, and for Invoke-Command to work you need to have PSRemoting enabled on the remote computers.

Also, I'm not sure how Invoke-Command returns results from multiple computers - I'm guessing in an array, but I'm not going to be able to test that for the next 2 weeks unfortunately so I'd be writing that code "blindly" based on what I assume.

So for now I won't be able to do that, but I can get back to you in 2 weeks (if you remind me) with another pull request. Once we have the Invoke-Command version working we could also implement stuff like:

Get-ADComputer -Filter "Name -like 'TX-20*'" | Get-BitLockerInfo
