You can find documentation here: https://andreilungu.com/powershell-random-password-generator DETAILED DESCRIPTION This is a module that allows generating random passwords. The default length of the generated password is 15 characters. If you want to generate one or more passwords with a different length you can specify the parameter "PasswordLength".

The default values for other parameters are: PercentLowerCaseLetters 0.3 PercentUpperCaseLetters 0.3 PercentNumbers 0.2 PercentCharacters 0.2 This means that the password will contain 30% Lowecase letters, 30% Uppercase letters, 20% numbers and 20% Characters.

For example: Get-RandomPassword -PasswordLength 10 ` -NoOfPasswords 30 ` -PercentLowerCaseLetters 0.5 ` -PercentNumbers 0.5 ` -OpenInTextFile This will generate 30 passwords of 10 characters composed 50% of Lowercase letters and 50% numbers each.
