How to Show Version History in SharePoint 2013 using PowerShell

The simple and efficient method that I follow is to get Version History for all the documents in a SharePoint Library using Power Shell Commands.

Steps

1. Start your windows PowerShell on your computer.
2. Right click and select Run as administrator option.
3. Paste the below script on the PowerShell window and click the enter button.
4. Check your SharePoint site Feature will activated successfully.

$Site = Get-SPSite http://gauti.sharepoint.com/sites

$Webs = $Site.AllWebs

foreach ($Web in $Webs)
{
foreach ($List in $web.Lists)
{
//Check if the Versioning is enabled or not.

if($List.EnableVersioning)
{
$Item=$List.Items[0]
foreach($Version in $Item.Versions)
{
Write-Host "Documen Library Name:" $List.Title "-" "Document Name:" $Item.Title $Version.VersionLabel
}
}
}
}
$Web.Dispose()
$Site.Dispose()

Run the script with the required administrator privilege. To verify that, Check the output window.
