You can also use the -milliseconds parameter to specify how long the resource sleeps in milliseconds.
To sleep a PowerShell script for 5 seconds, you can run the following command Start-Sleep -Seconds 5
You can use it for many tasks, such as waiting for an operation to complete or pausing before repeating an operation. In PowerShell, we can use the Start-Sleep cmdlet to suspend/pause/sleep/wait the activity in a script or session for the specified period of time.
