WmiExec.ps1

Remote execution tools for Windows that rely only on WMI and PowerShell.

Execute console commands remotely and capture stdout/stderr streams without relying on PowerShell Remoting, WinRM or PsExec.

Examples

Blog post and video about this technique.

The example below shows you how WmiExec can accept the command string as a value from the pipeline.

PS C:\ "Get-ChildItem C:\" | .\WmiExec.ps1 -ComputerName "server1"
Running the following command on: server1...
Get-ChildItem C:\
PID: 5580 - Waiting for remote command to finish...
PID: 5580 - Waiting for remote command to finish...
Result...


    Directory: C:\

The example below shows you the object type that is returned.

PS C:\ $result = .\WmiExec.ps1 -ComputerName "server1" -Command "Get-ChildItem C:\"
Running the following command on: server1...
Get-ChildItem C:\
PID: 5580 - Waiting for remote command to finish...
