Cmdlets from CimCmdlets module are the most important cmdlets for general system managementtasks. All critical subsystem settings are exposed through WMI. Furthermore, WMI treats data asobjects that are in collections of one or more items. Because Windows PowerShell also works withobjects and has a pipeline that allows you to treat single or multiple objects in the same way,generic WMI access allows you to perform some advanced tasks with very little work.

Listing Desktop Settings

We'll begin with a command that collects information about the desktops on the local computer.

This returns information for all desktops, whether they are in use or not.

Note

Information returned by some WMI classes can be very detailed, and often include metadata aboutthe WMI class. Learn piano on computer.

Because most of these metadata properties have names that begin with Cim, you can filter theproperties using Select-Object. Specify the -ExcludeProperty parameter with 'Cim*' as thevalue. For example:

To filter out the metadata, use a pipeline operator (|) to send the results of the Get-CimInstancecommand to Select-Object -ExcludeProperty 'CIM*'.

Listing BIOS Information

The WMI Win32_BIOS class returns fairly compact and complete information about the system BIOS on the local computer:

Listing Processor Information

You can retrieve general processor information by using WMI's Win32_Processor class, althoughyou will likely want to filter the information:

For a generic description string of the processor family, you can just return the SystemTypeproperty:

Listing Computer Manufacturer and Model

Computer model information is also available from Win32_ComputerSystem. The standard displayedoutput will not need any filtering to provide OEM data:

Your output from commands such as this, which return information directly from some hardware, isonly as good as the data you have. Some information is not correctly configured by hardwaremanufacturers and may therefore be unavailable.

Listing Installed Hotfixes

You can list all installed hotfixes by using Win32_QuickFixEngineering:

This class returns a list of hotfixes that looks like this:

For more succinct output, you may want to exclude some properties. Although you can use theGet-CimInstance's Property parameter to choose only the HotFixID, doing so will actuallyreturn more information, because all the metadata is displayed by default:

The additional data is returned, because the Property parameter in Get-CimInstance restrictsthe properties returned from WMI class instances, not the object returned to PowerShell. To reducethe output, use Select-Object:

Listing Operating System Version Information

The Win32_OperatingSystem class properties include version and service pack information. You canexplicitly select only these properties to get a version information summary fromWin32_OperatingSystem:

You can also use wildcards with the Select-Object's Property parameter. Because all theproperties beginning with either Build or ServicePack are important to use here, we canshorten this to the following form:

Listing Local Users and Owner

Local general user information — number of licensed users, current number of users, and owner name —can be found with a selection of Win32_OperatingSystem class properties. You can explicitlyselect the properties to display like this:

A more succinct version using wildcards is:

Getting Available Disk Space

To see the disk space and free space for local drives, you can use the Win32_LogicalDisk WMI class.You need to see only instances with a DriveType of 3 — the value WMI uses for fixed hard disks.

Getting Logon Session Information

You can get general information about logon sessions associated with users through theWin32_LogonSession WMI class:

Getting the User Logged on to a Computer

You can display the user logged on to a particular computer system using Win32_ComputerSystem. Thiscommand returns only the user logged on to the system desktop:

Getting Local Time from a Computer

You can retrieve the current local time on a specific computer by using the Win32_LocalTime WMIclass.

Displaying Service Status

To view the status of all services on a specific computer, you can locally use the Get-Servicecmdlet. For remote systems, you can use the Win32_Service WMI class. If you also useSelect-Object to filter the results to Status, Name, and DisplayName, the outputformat will be almost identical to that from Get-Service:

To allow the complete display of names for the occasional services with extremely long names, youmay want to use Format-Table with the AutoSize and Wrap parameters, to optimize columnwidth and allow long names to wrap instead of being truncated:
