PowerShell not matching strings

I know that one might assume some whitespace, so I tried Trim, no dice. I copied the name from the group and pasted it into the list (just in case there was a unicode character in there or something) and I still get false.

Have you tried to output the group name you get from your AD? The culprit might be there - not in the string you place manually in your $CommonGroups variable.

It could be an ambiguous character …

'GPAP-M365-E3―Base'
'GPAP-M365-E3-Base'

These two strings are not equal!!
