Here is an example script for enumerating Win32_Product instances and their properties: ----------------------- cut products.js ------------------------------------ var objOMIServices = GetObject("WinMgmts:Root\\CIMV2"); var objWMIInstances = objOMIServices.InstancesOf("Win32_Product"); var processInstances; var process; var processProperties; var property; processInstances = new Enumerator(objWMIInstances); for (; !processInstances.atEnd(); processInstances.moveNext()) { WScript.Echo(" "); process = processInstances.item(); processProperties = process.Properties_; propertyEnumerator = new Enumerator(processProperties); for (; !propertyEnumerator.atEnd(); propertyEnumerator.moveNext()) { property = propertyEnumerator.item(); WScript.Echo(property.Name + " " + property.Value); } } ------------------- cut products.js ----------------------------------------- When I run this script I see very few products have anything in InstallLocation. Does anyone know how to do this using WiX.... Or even the SDK alone? (note: if you run this on Windows Server 2003 and don't see anything, its likely because you need to go to Control Panel->Add or Remove Programs->Add/Remove Windows Components->Management and Monitoring Tools->Details->WMI Windows Installer Provider) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Take Surveys.
