The $CurrentVersion before your () is wrong. And you don't need the (). Try this for line 1 insde of the Foreach: $CurrentVersionLargest32 = Get-ChildItem $CurrentVersion -recurse | Sort-Object length -descending | select-object -first 32 | measure-object -property length –sum
Of course, you can also do: [int]$CurrentVersionLargest32 = (Get-ChildItem $CurrentVersion -recurse | Sort-Object length -descending | select-object -first 32 | measure-object -property length –sum).sum / 1GB This forces it to round to nearest GB. :) Good luck!
