Power Shell List Directories that contain file type

Trying to get a list of directories that contain .123 files. Just need the directory Name \ Path. Have tried Get-ChildItem with many options

get-childitem -Directory -Recurse -Filter *.123 |Select-Object FullName

Would like to output to a CSV file.

Thanks

The following should give you the output you want

Get-childitem -Recurse -Filter *123 | select-object directory -Unique | Export-Csv -Path file.csv

Notice that we are looking for files, so no -directory switch is needed, and then we can select the directory property of the file.

The -unique switch will prevent us getting the same directory multiple times if it contains more than one file with your filter option.
