Where to apply -ErrorAction on a .Net call?

Question

This works to count *.jpg files.

PS C:\\> @([System.IO.Directory]::EnumerateFiles(\'C:\\Users\\Public\\Pictures\', \'*.jpg\', \'AllDirectories\')).Count
8

I don't think you can. Unless you want to implement directory traversal yourself you're probably stuck with something like this:

Get-ChildItem 'C:\Users' -Filter '*.jpg' -Recurse -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
