Well formatted question

Q: This foreach loop only returns the number 5 and I need it return all 5 elements in the fixed length array $Retries
$Retries = @(1..5) foreach($Retry in $Retries.count){ Write-Host $Retry } Result: 5

A: $Retries.count returns the total number of elements in the fixed length array, so a single response of 5 is the result. Removing the count property should get you the desired results.

$Retries = @(1..5) foreach($Retry in $Retries){ Write-Host $Retry } Result: 1 2 3 4 5
