How to see the log file updates in real time for Windows OS

I am working on a Java app and i need to see the log file updates in real time rather than refreshing the editor (Notepad ++ or Textpad) each time.

The most powerful tool in windows to see real time log file updates is Powershell.
OS: Windows 7

The following steps will help you to set that up

1. Download Powershell
Use the following helpful links to access and download Powershell

2. Navigate to the folder in which log files are present.
3. Type in the following command
Get -Content -path //log_file_name// -tail 10-wait

Hope this helps :)
