Win32_FileSpecification powershell sample code

The foundations for Manageability in Windows is Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI; formerly WBEM) and WMI extensions for Windows Driver Model (WDM).

ActiveXperts Network Monitor provides the ability to build monitor check routines based on WMI. ActiveXperts has collected more than a hundred WMI samples. You can use these samples as a base for new check routines you can write yourself. The Win32_FileSpecification WMI class can be used in ActiveXperts Network Monitor to monitor your servers.

Description

The Win32_FileSpecification WMI class represents a source file with its various attributes, ordered by a unique, non-localized identifier. For uncompressed files, the File property is ignored, and the FileName property is used for both source and destination file name. You must set the Uncompressed bit of the Attributes property for any file that is not compressed in a cabinet.

Sample Code

$computer = "LocalHost" 
$namespace = "root\CIMV2" 
Get-WmiObject -class Win32_FileSpecification -computername $computer -namespace $namespace
