PowerShell no-brainer for many :)

PowerShell no-brainer for many :)

I'm running this command - Get-AzPolicyAlias -ResourceTypeMatch "storage" -ListAvailable

All works just fine. But when i look at the results, it seems the paths are too long and they stop with ... (3 dots). I have uploaded an image to illustrate. How can i get the full result displayed? I tried piping to file, but same thing. Am i missing something, is data even hidden i wonder?

Thank you

Thank you everyone. I will test each guidance tomorrow. Thanks.
You can also pipe the output to Out-Gridview if you want to also be able to filter the output.
The first 2 suggestions didn't work, but thank you.
@ Footech I think yours worked,  although I discovered something odd. Maybe not all data is displayed in csv file. Here's what i mean.
Open the file and do a search for 'public' and select 'find all'. It takes me to a cell (see image attached) but I do not see the word public?
If you look at the cell it only displays microsoft.storage/storageaccounts/accounttype but if you look at the find results, it shows a string much much longer than what is displayed in the cell. Does that make sense?
I've attached the file as well. If you would, open it, search 'public', select 'find all'. And look at the results.

Thanks.
Hi again - i can shed more light.
If i copy the cell with microsoft.storage/storageaccounts/accounttype   and paste it into a new worksheet, it produces a list, which is what the search is exposing. What 's User generated image
What's happing here then? Is this by design? Does it mean I'd have to copy and paste every cell to get the full list? Thank you. 
That's why I suggested auto fit row height.  For a single row you could just expand the height using your mouse to drag the border.

The strings for that property are joined by newlines, hence their appearance in Excel.  You could join by other characters, but I think it makes it less readable than what I've suggested.
What a numpty! Me, not you :)
I didn't read your reply properly. Thanks for your help. Cough cough, I now see all data :)
