ManagementObject Class not showing up in System.Management namespace

Question

I\'m trying to write some WMI in my windows form and the ManagementObject is givin me the

\"The type or namespace name \'ManagementObject\' could not be found\" Err

Answer 1

I think the problem is there is no WMI object for Win32_LogicalDisk.DeviceID=\"C:\". Try to replace:

ManagementObject disk = new ManagementObject("Win32_LogicalDisk.DeviceID=\"C:\"");

with:

ManagementObject disk = new ManagementObject("Win32_LogicalDisk");

and then to step through each field:

foreach (ManagementObject o in disk.Get()){
    //Do what ever you need here.... For example:  
    Console.WriteLine(o.ToString());
}
