Just add the where command to compare the fields.

... | where File1 != File2

Close. The double quote is used for comparing values. To compare fields with spaces in their names, surround them in single quotes.

...|where 'File 1' != 'File 2.txt'

Ahhh 😞 !! thanks BobM but
here where clause is not working..
cant we use "" inside where clause as my source file names have space between them like
|where "File 1" != "File 2.txt"
