See where information inventory comes from (WMI commands for example)

Is there a way to see which WMI commands are being used to fill the information in PDQ Inventory?

Uptime for a computer for example. How is it being queried?

 

Any way to see those commands?

  • There is nothing built-in that displays how Inventory retrieves each field.

    Uptime is a calculated field based on Boot Time. I think we gather that from the LastBootUpTime property in the Win32_OperatingSystem class, but I'm not 100% sure on that.

    Also, Uptime can appear to be inaccurate if you have Fast Startup enabled: https://help.pdq.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360050593971/comments/360007698931
