Powershell scripting : GET-WMIOBJECT
Dear All,
From my windows 7 entreprise, I launched this powershell script.
Get-credential
$computer= read-host 'computer name?'
cls
write $computer
(GET-WMIOBJECT win32_operatingsystem -computername $computer).Name;
(GET-WMIOBJECT win32_operatingsystem -computername $computer).OSArchitecture;
(GET-WMIOBJECT win32_bios -computername $computer).SerialNumber;
The result I got is :
modtestjj
Microsoft Windows 7 Entreprise |C:\windows|\Device\Harddi
64 bits
PB58LNG
How can I get the result like this
ComputerName OS version OS architecture Serial number
modtestjj Microsoft Windows 7 64 bits PB58LNG

A couple of things, what are you doing with the credential? You are asking for it but not doing anything with it.
Secondly, are you running this as a .ps1 script?

If I am working from a computer that does not have admin rights I have to log off then log back in with admin credentials to run the script, correct?.
So, that the reason why I input a log in windows

$Cred = Get-credential
$computer= read-host 'computer name?'
cls
Get-WmiObject -Computername $Computer win32_operatingsystem | Select @{N="Computer Name";E={$Computer}}, @{N="OS Version";E={$_.Caption}}, OSArchitecture, @{N="Serial";E={(GET-WMIOB
$Cred = Get-credential
$computer= read-host 'computer name?'
cls
Get-WmiObject -Computername $Computer win32_operatingsystem | Select @{N="Computer Name";E={$Computer}}, @{N="OS Version";E={$_.Caption}}, OSArchitecture, @{N="Serial";E={(GET-WMIOB
Hi there,
Glad you've got it working !
If I am working from a computer that does not have admin rights I have to log off then log back in with admin credentials to run the script, correct?.No, you can run the script from anywhere, when it asks for account details put in the admin account.
Glad you've got it working !
does this help?
