Use PowerShell to get openfiles with handle.exe

You find handle.exe at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896655.aspx.

You can use the following script to store a snapshot of the open files in a grid. You have to adapt the path to handle.exe.

C:\Usr\sysint\handle.exe | foreach{            
    if ($_ -match '^(?<program>\S*)\s*pid: (?<pid>\d*)\s*(?<user>.*)$') {            
        $matches | %{             
        $id = $_.pid            
        $program = $_.program            
        $user = $_.user            
        }            
    }            
    if ($_ -match '^\s*(?<handle>[\da-z]*): File  \((?<attr>...)\)\s*(?<file>(\\\\)|([a-z]:).*)') {            
        #$_            
        $matches | select @{n="Pid";e={$id}}, @{n="Program";e={$program}}, @{n="User";e={$user}}, @{n="Handle";e={$_.handle}}, @{n="attr";e={$_.attr}}, @{n="Path";e={$_.file}}            
    }            
                
} | out-Gridview            
            

I would like to fetch just the files in the current disk queue.
