Win32_LogicalProgramGroup

Here are some basic code samples to get you started:

• Getting all instances using PowerShell:
  

  # getting all instances: Get-WMIObject -Class Win32_LogicalProgramGroup # viewing default property in GridView: Get-WMIObject -Class Win32_LogicalProgramGroup | Out-GridView # using CIM cmdlet  # requires PowerShell 3.0 or better: Get-CIMInstance -ClassName Win32_LogicalProgramGroup

• Selecting all properties (view full object content):
  

  # viewing all properties: Get-WMIObject -Class Win32_LogicalProgramGroup | Select-Object -Property * # Note: replace "*" with a comma-separated lists of properties to show only selected properties. # displaying information in GridView: # (Note: Out-GridView can only display a maximum of 30 columns. Additional properties are not shown.) Get-WMIObject -Class Win32_LogicalProgramGroup | Select-Object -Property * | Out-GridView -Title "Win32_LogicalProgramGroup"

• Querying information remotely:
  

  # connecting to a remote machine using current identity: $ComputerName = 'SomeServerNameOrIP' Get-WMIObject -Class Win32_LogicalProgramGroup -ComputerName $ComputerName # using credentials: $ComputerName = 'SomeServerNameOrIP' $Username = 'mydomain\\myusername' Get-WMIObject -Class Win32_LogicalProgramGroup -ComputerName $ComputerName -Credential $Username

In this WMI class, all WMI properties are read-only. You can only read values but not change them.

Caption

Data type String

The Caption property is a short textual description (one-line string) of the object.

Description

Data type String

The Description property provides a textual description of the object.

GroupName

Data type String

The GroupName property indicates the name of the Win32 program group. Program groups are implemented as file folders in Win32.

Example: Accessories\System Tools

InstallDate

Data type DateTime

The InstallDate property is datetime value indicating when the object was installed. A lack of a value does not indicate that the object is not installed.

Name

Data type String

The Name property indicates the user assigned name followed by the group name. Program groups are implemented as file folders in Win32.

Example: All Users:Accessories\System Tools

Status

Data type String

The Status property is a string indicating the current status of the object. Various operational and non-operational statuses can be defined. Operational statuses are “OK”, “Degraded” and “Pred Fail”. “Pred Fail” indicates that an element may be functioning properly but predicting a failure in the near future. An example is a SMART-enabled hard drive. Non-operational statuses can also be specified. These are “Error”, “Starting”, “Stopping” and “Service”. The latter, “Service”, could apply during mirror-resilvering of a disk, reload of a user permissions list, or other administrative work. Not all such work is on-line, yet the managed element is neither “OK” nor in one of the other states.

UserName

Data type String

The UserName property indicates the users who can access the Win32 program group. Program groups are implemented as file folders in Win32.

Example: All Users
