[Problem with default script 'Check System Drive Fragmentation']

I looked at this script, and it will always return "Operating system is not supported" because in the script $major and $minor are strings, I was able to confirm that with the commands:

$major.GetType()

IsPublic IsSerial Name                                     BaseType
-------- -------- ----                                     --------
True     True     String                                   System.Object

 

$minor.GetType()

IsPublic IsSerial Name                                     BaseType
-------- -------- ----                                     --------
True     True     String                                   System.Object

 

I recommend updating the script to this, and I highlighted the changes:

$version = (Get-WmiObject Win32_OperatingSystem).Version
[int]$major = $version.split(".")[0]
[int]$minor = $version.split(".")[1]
if ($major -gt 6 -or ($major -eq 6 -and $minor -gt 1)) {
    Optimize-Volume -driveletter $pwd.drive.name -Analyze -verbos
} Else {
    Write-Output "Operating system is not supported."
}

 

Here is the original script:

$version = (Get-WmiObject Win32_OperatingSystem).Version
$major = $version.split(".")[0]
$minor = $version.split(".")[1]
if ($major -gt 6 -or ($major -eq 6 -and $minor -gt 1)) {
    Optimize-Volume $pwd.drive.name -Analyze -verbos
} Else {
    Write-Output "Operating system is not supported."
}
