When you use Where-Object to filter information by date or time, this works actually very well–provided you use the correct filtering format. Do not use the format found in the results.
To specify a date and or time, always use the culture-neutral management format:
"year-month-day hour:minute:second", so May 14, 2014 at 12:30 would read like this: "2014-05-14 12:30:00".
Or to put it differently: when you output results, PowerShell formats dates and times according to your control panel settings. When you input information (for example, filter criteria), PowerShell always expects a generic date and time format. Which makes sense: scripts should run in any culture the same. Results should be formatted in the culture of the person that needs to read them.
