WMI: I can't find the reference to namespace root/cimv2

I am working with Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI). I must use the
namespace ROOT.CIMV2, I have written "using ROOT.CIMV2.Win3 2" on the top of
the file, but a compilation error happened because I hadn't Add the
Reference where that namespace is.
If someone knows which is the Reference I must Add to the project, tell me,
please.
Thank you very much.

The using part isn't strictly necessary, it's there for ease of use.

In visual studio, right-click on References in Solution Explorer and
choose Add Reference...
Locate the assembly (dll) and add it.

With csc I think you use /reference: WMI.dll or whatever the assembly is
called.

WMI namespaces are not .NET FCL namespaces, use the System.Manageme nt namespace to include WMI support in your code.
Check the MSDN docs for deatils and samples.

How can I use WMI or a WqlObjectQuery to find the hard drive letter of the physical drive location index.

Hi, I have succesfully used a ManagementScope object to get WMI information about workstations on the current domain using "//xp10/root/cimv1". But if I make a request to a workstation on a sub-domain, the command fails to connect with "Access denied". Do I need to alter the string somehow to include the sub domain name or could this be a rights issue ? Thanks in advance, Adrian

I'm trying to (programatically) backup and clear the security event log on the local machine. I can do this manually through the event viewer and I am logged on as an administrator. I can successfully connect to the local wmi service.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
