User Profile Disk unlock script - Powershell

A powershell script that bring up a gridview where you can select user profile disk and dismount them. Useful if the user is getting a temp profile due to locked user profile disks. For use on the file server hosting the UPD. Replace <fileserverwheretheUPDsarestored> with the server name and <driverletterwherethevhdshare> with the physical drive letter where the vhds are.

$vhdarray = @()


## Get list of all VHDs and all Open VHDs for comparison

$vhds = Invoke-Command -ComputerName <fileserverwheretheUPDsarestored> {gci "E:\Data\UserProfileDisks" |

$openfiles = Invoke-Command -ComputerName <fileserverwheretheUPDsarestored> {get-smbopenfile | where {$_.path -Like "*.vhdx"}}


## Check list of VHDs against open VHDs to determine if the disk is connected to on of the hosts

foreach($vhd in $vhds)
