If you are not interested in hidden or system files you can also use Test-Path

To see if it exists a file in directory .\temp you can use :

Test-Path -Path .\temp\*

or shortly :

Test-Path .\temp\*
filter Test-DirectoryEmpty {
[bool](Get-ChildItem $_\* -Force)
}

Try this...

$directoryInfo = Get-ChildItem C:\temp | Measure-Object
$directoryInfo.count #Returns the count of all of the objects in the directory

If $directoryInfo.count -eq 0, then your directory is empty.

Just adding to JPBlanc, if directory path is $DirPath, this code also works for paths including square bracket characters.

    # Make square bracket non-wild card char with back ticks
$DirPathDirty = $DirPath.Replace('[', '`[')
$DirPathDirty = $DirPathDirty.Replace(']', '`]')


if (Test-Path -Path "$DirPathDirty\*") {
# Code for directory not empty
}
else {
# Code for empty directory
}

One line:

if( (Get-ChildItem C:\temp | Measure-Object).Count -eq 0)
{
#Folder Empty
}

To prevent enumerating each file under c:\Temp (which can be time consuming), we can do somethings like this:

if((Get-ChildItem c:\temp\ -force | Select-Object -First 1 | Measure-Object).Count -eq 0)
{
# folder is empty
}

It's a waste to get all files and directories and count them only to determine if directory is empty. Much better to use .NET EnumerateFileSystemInfos

$directory = Get-Item -Path "c:\temp"
if (!($directory.EnumerateFileSystemInfos() | select -First 1))
{
"empty"
}

Simple approach

if (-Not (Test-Path .\temp*))
{
# do your stuff here
}

you can remove -Not if you want to enter the 'if' when files are present.

Example of removing empty folder:

IF ((Get-ChildItem "$env:SystemDrive\test" | Measure-Object).Count -eq 0) {
remove-Item "$env:SystemDrive\test" -force
}
    $contents = Get-ChildItem -Path "C:\New folder"
if($contents.length -eq "") #If the folder is empty, Get-ChileItem returns empty string
{
Remove-Item "C:\New folder"
echo "Empty folder. Deleted folder"
}
else{
echo "Folder not empty"
}
#Define Folder Path to assess and delete
$Folder = "C:\Temp\Stuff"


#Delete All Empty Subfolders in a Parent Folder
Get-ChildItem -Path $Folder -Recurse -Force | Where-Object { $_.PSIsContainer -and (Get-ChildItem -Path $_.FullName -Recurse -Force | Where-Object { !$_.PSIsContainer }) -eq $null } | Remove-Item -Force -Recurse


#Delete Parent Folder if empty
If((Get-ChildItem -Path $Folder -force | Select-Object -First 1 | Measure-Object).Count -eq 0) {Remove-Item -Path $CATSFolder -Force -Recurse}

Getting a count from Get-ChildItem can provide false results because an empty folder or error accessing a folder could result in a 0 count.

The way I check for empty folders is to separate out errors:

Try { # Test if folder can be scanned
$TestPath = Get-ChildItem $Path -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue -ErrorVariable MsgErrTest -Force | Select-Object -First 1
}
Catch {}
If ($MsgErrTest) { "Error accessing folder" }
Else { # Folder can be accessed or is empty
"Folder can be accessed"
If ([string]::IsNullOrEmpty($TestPath)) { # Folder is empty
"   Folder is empty"
}
}

The above code first tries to acces the folder. If an error occurs, it outputs that an error occurred. If there was no error, state that "Folder can be accessed", and next check if it's empty.

After looking into some of the existing answers, and experimenting a little, I ended up using this approach:

function Test-Dir-Valid-Empty {
param([string]$dir)
(Test-Path ($dir)) -AND ((Get-ChildItem -att d,h,a $dir).count -eq 0)
}

This will first check for a valid directory (Test-Path ($dir)). It will then check for any contents including any directories, hidden file, or "regular" files** due to the attributes d, h, and a, respectively.

Usage should be clear enough:

PS C_\> Test-Dir-Valid-Empty projects\some-folder
False

...or alternatively:

PS C:\> if(Test-Dir-Valid-Empty projects\some-folder){ "empty!" } else { "Not Empty." }
Not Empty.

** Actually I'm not 100% certain what the defined effect of of a is here, but it does in any case cause all files to be included. The documentation states that ABC1 shows hidden files, and I believe ABC2 should show system files, so I'm guessing a on it's own just shows "regular" files. If you remove it from the function above, it will in any case find hidden files, but not others.

You can use the method .GetFileSystemInfos().Count to check the count of directories. Microsoft Docs

$docs = Get-ChildItem -Path .\Documents\Test
$docs.GetFileSystemInfos().Count

One line for piping, by also using the GetFileSystemInfos().Count with a test :

gci -Directory | where { !@( $_.GetFileSystemInfos().Count) }

will show all directories which have no items. Result:

Directory: F:\Backup\Moving\Test


Mode                 LastWriteTime         Length Name
----                 -------------         ------ ----
d-----         5/21/2021   2:53 PM                Test [Remove]
d-----         5/21/2021   2:53 PM                Test - 1
d-----         5/21/2021   2:39 PM                MyDir [abc]
d-----         5/21/2021   2:35 PM                Empty

I post this because I was having edge-case issues with names that contained brackets [ ]; failure was when using other methods and the output piped to Remove-Item missed the directory names with brackets.
