For some time I have been looking for a simple powershell script that will give me the computer’s CPU usage with no luck.
After failing to find one and had some spare time I have done a small research and came up with a little WMI line that gives the CPU usage as follow:
Get-WmiObject win32_processor | select LoadPercentage |fl
The line uses the WMI class and display the CPU usage.
I have also created a script that refresh every 10 seconds and shows the CPU usage.
while ($true)
{
Start-Sleep -s 15
cls
‘CPU Load is’
Get-WmiObject win32_processor | select LoadPercentage |fl
}
