Michael,  
usually we do not write scripts or ready to use code on request. But you could try to find something what fits your requirements in the [Powershell Gallery](https://www.powershellgallery.com/) or in the [Microsoft Technet Script Library](https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/).

Have you tried using Get-Process and Where-Object?
