Unable to completely parse XML in PowerShell

by

XML is a structured text format. It knows nothing about “folders”. What you see in your screenshots is just how the the data is rendered by program you use for displaying it.

Anyway, the best approach to get what you want is using SelectNodes() with an XPath expression. As usual.

[xml]$xml = Get-Content 'X:\folder\my.xml'
$xml.SelectNodes('//Product/Item[@Class="Patch"]') |
    Select-Object BulletinID, PatchName, Status
