I'm comparing users between two domains to make sure users that are disabled in one, are disabled in the other, using these two steps:

Domain 1:

Get-ADUser -SearchBase "OU=ou2,OU=ou1,DC=pre,DC=domain1,DC=com" -Filter * -Properties * | Select-Object Name | Export-Csv -encoding "utf8" Users.csv

Domain 2:

$input = import-csv -path "Users.csv" 
ForEach ($User in $input) 
$result = get-aduser -SearchBase "OU=ou2,OU=ou1,DC=pre,DC=domain2,DC=com" -Filter "name -eq '$($User.Name)'" 

This works, but gives me the following output:

Name Enabled
---- -------
Firstname1 Lastname1 True
@Name=Firstname2 Lastname2 - Name not found. Please do a manual check

How do I remove "@Name=" and ""?
I have tried adding -ExtendProperity to $result, and Replace with no luck. I'm probably doing it wrong..

$User is a custom object (type [pscustomobject], as output by Import-Csv), and @Name=Firstname2 Lastname2 is its stringified representation^[1], because Write-Host stringifies its arguments for display.

Access the .Name property instead to get just the name:

Write-host -ForegroundColor Yellow $User.Name "- Name not found. Please do a manual check" 

More idiomatically, using a single expandable string (string interpolation inside "..."):

Write-host -ForegroundColor Yellow "$($User.Name) - Name not found. Please do a manual check" 

If you want to include the full object representation as it would appear if you printed it directly to the console, you need Out-String, but note that you'll end up with multi-line output:

Write-host -ForegroundColor Yellow "$($User | Out-String) - Name not found. Please do a manual check" 

^{[1] You can verify this as follows: $user = [pscustomobject] @ Name = 'Firstname1 LastName1' ; "$user". The output is string @Name=Firstname1 LastName1.}
