Import-CSV -Path "C:\pc_names" | Select -expand Name | Get-ADComputer -searchbase 'XXX' -Filter {(Enabled -eq $False)} -Properties Name, OperatingSystem | Export-CSV “C:\DisabledComps.CSV” -NoTypeInformation

Hi,
if you only want the name:
If you also want the OS
if you only want the name:
Import-CSV -Path "C:\pc_names.csv" | Select -expand Name | Get-ADComputer -searchbase 'XXX' -Filter {(Enabled -eq $False)} | select Name | Export-CSV “C:\DisabledComps.CSV” -NoTypeInformation If you also want the OS
Import-CSV -Path "C:\pc_names.csv" | Select -expand Name | Get-ADComputer -searchbase 'XXX' -Filter {(Enabled -eq $False)} -Properties * | select Name, OperatingSystem | Export-CSV “C:\DisabledComps.CSV” -NoTypeInformation 
Hi @Xaero1982, thank you for your reply. My Problem is, i don't want all pc names in the provided OU searchbase, i just want the names of the deactivated computers i have in the provided csv file
Sure i forgot the first import-csv. I will correct it
Import-CSV -Path "C:\pc_names.txt" -delimiter "," | Select -expand Name | Get-ADComputer -Properties Name, OperatingSystem | ?{!$_.Enabled} | Export-CSV "C:\DisabledComps.CSV" -NoTypeInformation
at first the filter was missing. after I inserted this i still get all diabled pc names in the provided ou 
I have created a pc_names.csv
PC1 is disabled.
I use this one
and I got a file DisabledComps.csv with PC1 and Windows 10 Pro.
How does your importfile looks like? And whats the suffix of your file?
name
pc1
pc2
pc3PC1 is disabled.

i have a normal csv file without the name header.
pc1
pc2
pc3
i tried your code with and without a header in my csv file.
if i add the name header, i get a csv with all pc names in it again and the following message. i work with a german system, so i don't exactly understand
Get-ADComputer : The input object cannot be bound to any parameters of the command because the command does not accept pipeline input or the input and its properties do not match any of the parameters that accept pipeline input.
In line:1 Character:61

If you dont have a header in your file then you don't need import-csv and you can use Get-Content or you need to specify the -header Parameter with import-csv
or
Import-CSV -Path "C:\pc_names.txt" -Header 'Name' | Select -expand Name | Get-ADComputer -Properties Name, OperatingSystem | ?{!$_.Enabled} | Export-CSV "C:\DisabledComps.CSV" -NoTypeInformation Get-Content "C:\pc_names.txt" | Get-ADComputer -Properties Name, OperatingSystem | ?{!$_.Enabled} | Export-CSV "C:\DisabledComps.CSV" -NoTypeInformation
Hi @149062,
when i run your code, i prompted to specify a filter. i used Enabled -eq $False. after that i get the exported csv with all deactivated pc's inside, not only with the provided names inside the .txt file -> your code example 2
after the code finished i get the following failure:
Get-ADComputer : The input object cannot be bound to any parameters of the command because the command does not accept pipeline input or the input and its properties do not match any of the parameters that accept pipeline input.

No, runs here without problems if you use a current powershell version! When one ore more string arguments are transmitted via pipeline Get-ADComputer switches to another parameterset, and -Filter is not a member! So is works as designed
.If you don't tell us the real content of your text file we cannot help, because here it works as expected, when the textfile only contains the SamAccountNames of the computers.
i just have tried it with a csv file and a text file where i have just the computernames written in each row like
pc1
pc2
pc3
...
without header
pc1
pc2
pc3
...
without header
