This isn't the fastest (using .NET would be), but it's easy to understand:
$username = ( gwmi win32_computersystem ).username.ToString()
$sid = ( gwmi win32_useraccount |? { $_.Caption -eq $username } ).SID
gwmi win32_userprofile |? { $_.SID -eq $sid }

OK, I'm having a ditzy moment
I'm trying to query profile type in PowerShell using gwmi
Specifically gwmi win32_userprofile | select localpath, status
But this returns all users on the machine - how can I make it return just the
current user? I'm having a severe blonde moment - help!
(Apologies to all blondes on the list)
Cheers,
