Question

can you please share with me if you have any tool/script to check the difference between two "web.config" files.

Answer 1

You can use Compare-Object as follows:

clear-host
$strFile1 = get-Content "C:\config_files_1\web.config"
$strFile2 = get-Content "C:\config_files_2\web.config"
Compare-Object $strFile1 $strFile2
