I have the PowerShell Script. If anyone can help me or point me in the right direction I would appreciate it. Thanks!
Here's the PowerShell Script, it works with Excel. I'm getting a error message and need to know if anyone can help me fix it, thanks.
The script is made to log into your twitter account and extract your friends in Excel. Any help is appreciated.
