I was getting file lock errors. I modified the $fstream line to be read only
$fstream = [System.IO.FileStream]::new($path, [System.IO.FileMode]::open , [System.IO.FileAccess]::Read )
Cheers!
Also if the files presented have spaces or other characters they will need to be escaped for URL and if accessing a SMB share the file path will need to be unescaped.
$path = [System.IO.Path]::Combine($root, $path) ; $path = [uri]::UnescapeDataString($path)
!!Awesome code!! Tim-S
#Change root accordingly. I like sym links.
function GenIndexHtml {
$root='C:\Link\Link\';$Body = ls -r -file |%{ $UT8=$_ ; $_.fullname.replace($root,'') |%{ "<p><a href='http://192.168.0.100/"+[string]([uri]::EscapeUriString(($_.split('\\')|%{$_}) -join "/"))+"'/>$UT8</a></p>" } }
$IndexFileContent=@(); $IndexFileContent += "<html><head><title>Title</title></head><body>" ; $IndexFileContent +=$Body ; $IndexFileContent += "</body><html>"

Thx - a handy little snippet ;)
Had a small issue with static content that required the MIME-type to be set correctly (Content contained scripts that use Webworkers).
Can be adapted to simply (try to) determine the MIMEtype from the filepath with the help of [System.Web.MimeMapping]::GetMimeMapping before writing the file to Outputstream.
