Whaaaat they removed wmic?! I used the crap out of that when I did windows admin.
Yeah. It's been deprecated for a while, but I've been running into some 11 systems where it is totally gone.
Have fun remembering a whole buttload of random PowerShell cmdlets to do the same fucking thing as that one tool.
Still works on my Win11. Now you got me anxious waiting for it to die.
I don't get as mad at Microsoft as most around here, but this is some boolsheet.

Does get-ciminstance not do the trick? I know the PS wmic cmdlets are depreciated, but I doubt they'd remove it entirely given how much uses that in the background.
