I have the following folder structure:
-Videos
-1. Summer
summer.mp4
summer.srt
summer2.zip
-2. Winter
winter.mkv
winter.vtt
- ..
How can I create a batch or powershell script that results in the following folder structure:
-Videos
-1. Summer
summer.mp4
1. Summer.7z
-2. Winter
winter.mkv
2. Winter.7z
- ..
So basically iterate through all sub-folders, zip all the contents except video formats using 7zip and delete the original files that were zipped. I'm open to suggestions using VB!

Answer 1

After 2 weeks of research I managed to do it myself. Here's the answer for anyone with a similar situation:
#echo off
cls
set zip="C:\Program Files (x86)\7-Zip\7z.exe"
set loc=C:\User\Downloads\Videos\UnConverted
cd %loc%
for /d %%D in (%loc%\*) do (
for /d %%I in ("%%D\*") do (
cd %%I
%zip% a -t7z -mx9 "%%~nxI.7z" *.txt *.html *.vtt *.srt *.zip *.jpeg *.png
del /S *.txt *.html *.vtt *.srt *.zip *.jpeg *.png
)
)
cd %loc%
echo ----- Compression Complete! -----
pause
The first for loop iterates through the every subfolder of the root folder while the second for loop iterates through each subfolder of the root folders subfolders. After that
cd %%I - To enter the sub-sub-folder
%zip% - To call the 7z cli
a - add files to archive
t7z - using the .7z extension
mx9 - with maximum compression
%%~nxI.7z - to store the files using the sub-sub-folders name
*.txt *.html *.vtt *.srt *.zip *.jpeg *.png - file extensions to archive
after that the del deletes the archived files.
