I have a problem in that my PowerShell Archive archive script crashes after consuming my entire machines memory using the Compress-Archive cmdlet. The for loop added below really helped by only dealing with a few files at a time, but I am still getting "Out of Memory" errors on my large files I am trying to compress.
Is setting max PowerShell memory still an option? I understand set max memory may not work. Also, I see garbage collection can be a solution. Where would one place the garbage collection and what would the appropriate syntax be?
