Heh, how very cool.  I wasn't aware powershell could do such things.  All kinds of new things learned in this thread.  Thanks for that.

You can do this with just 1kb of PowerShell ...

File uptime.ps1 :

$MethodDefinition = @"
[DllImport("kernel32")] public extern static UInt64 GetTickCount64();
"@

$Kernel32 = Add-Type -MemberDefinition $MethodDefinition -Name 'Kernel32' -Namespace 'Win32' -PassThru

#milliseconds
$tc= $Kernel32::GetTickCount64()

# seconds
$t= ($tc-$tc % 1000)/1000
$s= $t%60

# minutes
$tm=($t-$s)/60
$m= $tm % 60

#hours
$th=($tm-$m)/60
$h=$th % 24

#days
$d=($th-$h)/24

$Result="{0:d2}:{1:d2}:{2:d2}" -f $h,$m,$s
if ($d -ne 0)
  {
  $Result= "{0} {1}" -f $d,$Result
  }
Write-Host $Result
