I have tried using a few small routines utilizing WMI in some older VB6 apps, and after distributing it, seems like i got a lot of users contacting me saying this or that 'isn't working', which ended up being WMI related. I usually had to tell them to make sure WMI was installed on their computer, and finding the version that is right for their machine (win9x, xp, etc.) online to provide a link for them was also kind of a pain.
I am looking through he Microsoft WMI tool, and WMI seems really nice to use with tons of features, but will it be more of a pain than it's worth once the .NET app is distributed?
As a side question to the above, does .NET somehow automatically include WMI buitl into the namespaces? Or is it still a separate entity?
Thanks!
