How do I hide the last Write-Progress message?

[Roman Kuzmin]

Perhaps I miss something very obvious but how do I hide the last
Write-Progress message if I do not need it any more and my script still works
(and displays some data on the screen itself)?

Have you tried to reset the ProgressPreference variable to Continue within
the script?

This is a wild guess, since I don't know details about what your script is
showing. :)

use the -completed switch:

write-progress one one
start-sleep 3
write-progress one one -completed
start-sleep 3

This is my script (don't paste it into console, it should be really a
script, not 2 separate commands):

# Now I need to display progress
1..100 | %{sleep -m 10; write-progress Processing Foo -perc $_}
# Now I don't want to see the last progress message
1..10 | %{sleep 1; Write-Host "I don't want to see progress now $_"}

Any ideas how to hide progress for the second part of the script?

It does not work for my script:
(don't paste it into console, it should be really a script, not separate
commands)

1..100 | %{sleep -m 10; write-progress Processing Foo -perc $_}

write-progress one one -completed
1..10 | %{Write-Host "Don't want to see progress now $_"; sleep 1}
