Microsoft OneDrive latest version

[Maurice-AxiansNL]

Hi guys,

Small question:

When I run the following:

$OneDrive = Get-MicrosoftOneDrive | Where-Object { $_.Type -eq "Exe" -and $_.Ring -eq "Production" }

The output will be two Exe files, do you have an idea how to download only the highest version?

Thanks

You could try this:

(Get-MicrosoftOneDrive | Where-Object { $_.Type -eq "Exe" -and $_.Ring -eq "Production" }) | Sort-Object -Property @{ Expression = { [System.Version]$_.Version }; Descending = $true } | Select-Object -First 1

Will work for however many versions are returned.

Thanks, this worked like a charm.

The OneDrive update source doesn't always return multiple Exes, not sure why.

Sorting on the Version property will also work without casting it to [System.Version]. @msfreaks Have you seen it fail if sorting as is?

Get-MicrosoftOneDrive | Where-Object { $_.Type -eq "Exe" -and $_.Ring -eq "Production" } | Sort-Object -Property Version -Descending | Select-Object -First 1

Yes, without casting it will sort as string, for example, 2.1 will be listed as a newer version than 2.9
@("2.9","2.1") | Sort Descending lists 2.1 on top.

Comparing is also definitely an issue if you don't cast.
"2.9" -ge "2.10" returns true, [version]"2.9" -ge [version]"2.10" returns false..
