How can I get information about running process?

Please, how can I get information about running process like in "Windows Task
Manager"?
I know that I can use "Get-Process".
But "Get-Process" unfortunately does not return information about I/O operations
like "I/O Read Bytes", "I/O Write Bytes", etc.

I am using PowerShell version 1.

'Get-WmiObject Win32_Process' may work better than Get-Process eg .....


Get-WmiObject Win32_Process | `
where {$_.Name -eq 'powershell.exe'} | `
foreach {"$($_.ProcessId) $($_.ReadTransferCount) $($_.WriteTransferCount)"}

Hi David,


You can't with Get-Process, try with Performance Counters, for instance:


$pc = new-object System.Diagnostics.PerformanceCounter 'Process','IO Read
Bytes/sec','Powershell'
$pc.NextValue()
