WMI Explorer is a utility intended to provide the ability to browse and view WMI namespaces/classes/instances/properties in a single pane of view and is inspired by the PowerShell based WMI Explorer written by Marc.

As someone who works with Configuration Manager (SCCM), I spend a lot of time in wbemtest trying to find things which is very time consuming. I started this project with the intention to combine the features of currently available WMI Explorers, and to make it easier and quicker to find what you're looking for in WMI.

# Requirements

* Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 Full or .NET Framework 4.5.1

* Minimum display resolution: 1024x768

* Administrator rights to view some WMI objects

* (Optional) Internet access for automatic update check

# Features

* Browse and view WMI objects in a single pane of view.

* Connect as alternate credentials to remote computers.

* Asynchronous and Synchronous mode for enumeration.

* Method execution.

* SMS (Configuration Manager) mode providing additional functionality for Configuration Manager.

* Filter classes and instances matching specified criteria.

* View classes/instances in Managed Object Format (MOF).

* Search classes, methods and properties for names matching specified criteria.

* Run WQL queries.

* Automatic generation of WQL query for the selected Class/Instance.

* Automatic script creation (PowerShell and VBS).

* Highlighting enumerated objects.

* Display property descriptions and possible enumeration values (if available).

* Display methods descriptions and parameters.

* Display embedded property values.

* Caching enumerated classes/instances.

* View WMI Provider Process Information.

* Automatic check for new version.

# Known Issues

* Asynchronous mode currently applies only for Class and Instance enumeration. Search and Query execution is synchronous.

* Cached instance is not updated after clicking on ‘Refresh Object’.

* root\directory\LDAP namespace is excluded from Search because enumeration of objects in this namespace can take a very long time and can even return "Quota Violation" error.

* Scripting: PowerShell script execution through WMI Explorer requires PowerShell v2.

* Method Execution: Methods requiring input parameters of Object or Reference data type are currently not supported.
