PowerShell Get Current Console Process

I would like to get the process ID or handle of the current powershell script when I double click and run a PS1 file from Windows Explorer.

This works:

$hwndPowerShell = Get-Process -Name "PowerShell"

But if I have multiple PowerShell console open, how do I get the handle of the current script?

I know one other way is to use the Win32 API FindWindow to find the latest instance of PowerShell console.

Try this command ,in commandline property it will list the script path which we can use to identity the script and PID.

Get-CimInstance -ClassName Win32_Process -filter "name = 'powershell.exe'" | Select-Object -property Name,CommandLine,HandleCount,ProcessID,WorkingSetSize,CreationDate
