Can you get more than one win32 type from a single get-wmiobject query?
I've tried all of the ways I could think of:
I've tried all of the ways I could think of:
qwmi win32_logicaldisk, win32_computersystem doesn't work
gwmi (win32_logicaldisk, win32_computersystem) doesn't work
etc
how would you format that?
thanks!

you cannot do this. At one time you can query only one WMI class with
Get-WmiObject.

AWW :(
Thanks for replying. So you would have to write
"gwmi win32_logicaldisk, gwmi win32_computersystem" like that?
Could you do some for of for each loop or for each object?

What is the output you're trying to get, and why are you trying to do
it in one query?

Get-WmiObject returns collection of identical objects. You cannot return
collection of 2 different object types with single Get-WmiObject query. You
should use any type of loop to get it (foreach or foreach-object)
