Hello mahatah,

Thank you for the reply that means a lot to me. I will make a change to fix it as well. It is a translation thing. My apologies!

I wanted to make a quick mention to you though that this script kept failing on me until I figured out what was happening after about a half hour. As it turns out, the word “Extention” in the script is misspelled and should be instead “Extension”. Using the script without correcting this word causes line 45 to fail the as demonstrated below:

PS C:\Temp> .\Export-Image.ps1 -File C:\Temp\test.pdf -Extention jpeg -Verbose
VERBOSE: /c magick -density 300 -quality 100 “C:\Temp\test.pdf” “.jpegC.jpeg:.jpeg\.jpegT.jpege.jpegm.jpegp.jpeg\.jpegt.jpege.jpegs.jpegt.jpeg..jpegp.jpegd.jpegf.jpeg”

As you can see, it appends each letter of the file path to “.jpeg” until it is finished.

However, as previously mentioned, changing all instances of “Extention” to “Extension” fixed this up.

I have no plans currently to extend the functionality but thank you for the feedback.

I might GitHub repo it so people can add to it!

Edit: I made a repo for it: https://github.com/perplexityjeff/Backup-VirtualBox-PowerShell

Do you have plans to have any kind of shared repo on github/gitlab? I.e. i wanna extend it to upload backup results to s3 with limit on doing it via metered connection. Also, some params are hardcoded – i.e. archive type, while someone may want to use 7zip format instead of zip and so on
