https://winaero.com/microsoft-removed-the-wmic-tool-from-windows-11-dev-builds/ says

Microsoft points users to PowerShell instead of WMIC.

?

@JonB
yes that is but how to get real command
like WMIC cpu get ProcessorId
WMIC BaseBoard get serialnumber
it's not working in new cmd

@fadu
I have no idea. You should ask this in a Windows WMIC/PowerShell forum rather than a Qt one.

@JonB thanks for fast response
i ask but didn't get the right answer
another thing in c# it's easy to get it without this app i search if there is any method in qt like c#

JonB

@fadu
Qt is not a programming language. C# is a programming language, but not used with Qt. C++ (or Python) is used with Qt. I think you will find that the library you are thinking of with C# is actually a .NET library, which again is a different thing, and not used by Qt.

@JonB
i know that but i say about c# to explain only

JonB

@fadu
And I replied that I suspect you are talking about a .NET library, which you can access from a C# program running under Windows with a .NET runtime environment, which is not the situation for a Qt C++ program. So what would you like me to say?

Maybe you can try going to the effort of importing .NET runtime libraries into Qt/C++, I don't know, but haven't heard of people using it much in practice. Dot Net Example (ActiveQt).

Hello!

wmic command is not available on Windows 11 Insider Preview. I recommend to use the WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation). Check out the C++ example here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/wmisdk/example-creating-a-wmi-application

You can easily use it with Qt framework.

Yeah, that's much better, no .NET or C#!
