list full partition information from powershell, just like from Disk Management

Question

If I launch diskmgmt.msc, I end up full info on my partitions, including size and present file system (ntfs, fat32, etc...)

This has all the info I need to plan a Linux Mint multiboot. But I'd much rather have the info in text form, because I can't run the diskmanager while installing Linux.

Q: What can I use to list both what file system is being used, as well as size, for each partition?

diskpart list volume looks like it would have done the trick, but not found in Windows 10.

get-partition gives me size, but w.o. telling me much else:

get-volume looks quite promising, except it doesn't me the size of the unformatted partitions:

Solution

The following code snippet would list all properties of all volumes, each particular volume together with corresponding partition:

Get-Volume | ForEach-Object {
    $VolObj = $_
    $ParObj = Get-Partition | Where-Object { $_.AccessPaths -contains $VolObj.Path }
    if ( $ParObj ) {
        $VolObj | Select-Object -Property *
        '------------'
        $ParObj | Select-Object -Property *
        '----------------------------------'
    }
}

Try combining desired properties in a custom object or simply to standard output e.g. as

PS C:\Windows\system32> Get-Volume | ForEach-Object {
    $VolObj = $_
    $ParObj = Get-Partition | Where-Object { $_.AccessPaths -contains $VolObj.Path }
    if ( $ParObj ) {
        '{0,2} {1,2} {2,6} {3,20} {4,20} {5,2} {6}' -f $VolObj.DriveLetter,
            $ParObj.DiskNumber,
            $VolObj.FileSystem, 
            $VolObj.Size, 
            $VolObj.SizeRemaining,
            $ParObj.PartitionNumber,
            $VolObj.FileSystemLabel

    }
}

hezky, nice use of -f, if you don't like Format-Table with Calculated Property
