How to use Get-ChildItem to filter out locked/being used by another process files?

Question

Is Get-ChildItem able to filter out the files which are in locked state? Such as logs files currently in use by application and Get-ChildItem should skip on these files in results.

Example:

Get-ChildItem -Path C:\Logs\* # Maybe do pipelines condition here for filtering out locked files

Answer 1

I don't think this can be done using a Filter and of course you should keep in mind that files can get locked/unlocked anytime, so this would always be just snapshot that can change almost instantly.
This may be a way to do it:

Get-ChildItem -Path D:\Logs -File | ForEach-Object {
    try {
        $stream = $_.Open([System.IO.FileMode]::Open, [System.IO.FileAccess]::ReadWrite, [System.IO.FileShare]::None)
        if ($stream) { $stream.Close() }
        Write-Host "File $($_.FullName) is currently not locked" -ForegroundColor Green
    } 
    catch {
        Write-Host "File $($_.FullName) is currently locked" -ForegroundColor Red
        # emit the locked fileInfo object?
        $_
    }
}
