Try the following:

# Define variables
$RegistryKeyPath = "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Test"
$RegistryValueName = "ProcessCount"
$TextFilePath = "C:\Temp\Test.txt"
# Function to check if registry key exists
Function Test-RegistryKey {
    param (
        [string]$Path
    )
    return (Test-Path $Path)
}
# Function to check if text file exists
Function Test-TextFile {
    param (
        [string]$Path
    )
    return (Test-Path $Path)
}
# Function to get process count
Function Get-ProcessCount {
    return (Get-Process).Count
}
# Function to update registry value
Function Update-RegistryValue {
    param (
        [string]$Path,
        [string]$Name,
        [string]$Value
    )
    Set-ItemProperty -Path $Path -Name $Name -Value $Value -Force
}
# Function to write to text file
Function Write-TextFile {
    param (
        [string]$Path,
        [string]$Content
    )
    Add-Content -Path $Path -Value $Content
}
# Main script
if (!(Test-RegistryKey $RegistryKeyPath)) {
    New-Item -Path $RegistryKeyPath -Force | Out-Null
}
if (!(Test-TextFile $TextFilePath)) {
    New-Item -Path $TextFilePath -ItemType File -Force | Out-Null
}
# Loop for one minute
$EndTime = (Get-Date).AddMinutes(1)
while ((Get-Date) -lt $EndTime) {
    # Get current process count
    $ProcessCount = Get-ProcessCount
    
    # Update registry value
    Update-RegistryValue -Path $RegistryKeyPath -Name $RegistryValueName -Value $ProcessCount
    
    # Write to text file
    Write-TextFile -Path $TextFilePath -Content "$((Get-Date).ToString()): $ProcessCount"
    
    # Wait for one second
    Start-Sleep -Seconds 1
}
