I have created a ps1 script to extract a 3Gb zip folder. It works Whenever I run it from PowerShell ISE but when I add my script to windows server 2019 task scheduler it just says running and it doesn't do anything.
I tried
set-alias sz "$env:ProgramFiles\7-Zip\7z.exe"
Set-location C:\
sz x -oC:/ test.zip
I also tried
setx path "%path%;C:\Program Files\7-Zip"
Set-location C:\
7z x test.zip -oc:\ -r
I expect to extract the 3gbs folder.
I found the solution here: https://web.archive.org/web/20221027040500/https://ridicurious.com/2019/07/29/3-ways-to-unzip-compressed-files-using-powershell/
I was able to solve it this way:
Add-Type -Assembly "System.IO.Compression.Filesystem"
[System.IO.Compression.ZipFile]::ExtractToDirectory('C:\test.zip','C:\')
And the way I have created the Task Scheduler:
schtasks /create /tn "Extract" /sc onstart /delay 0000:30 /rl highest /ru system /tr "powershell.exe -file C:\scripts\setup\test.ps1"
It took 4 minutes to extract a 3GB folder.
