I want to know how to use WMIC to connect to remote host and output their PC's OS information(Installed programs list) to a file.

I tried

wmic /node: <IP address> OS get vendor, name > c:\output.txt

but i got error "Node - <IP> Error: Description = Invalid query"

But Actually, i think i need to be domain administrator for permission. so i tried

wmic /node: <IP> /domain: <domain.inc> /user:administrator /password:<password> OS get vendor, name > c:\output.txt

I got error: Invalid Global switch.

I want to get all of PC's OS information( installed programs list) by using WMIC. (i think i need to access with domain administrator cause all of PC is joined with domain) and im an administrator

Please...help me ㅠ____ㅠ ah, it seems to be ok when i tried with just my PC.

WMIC /output:C:\%computername%.txt product get name, vendor, version

WMIC OS get name, vendor, version >> C:\%computername%.txt

if i did like above, it is ok to get txt file. but i want to remote all PC and get an information file...@_@~~~~

one more question>> is it connected with Security policy or Group policy something? or Firewall something..........@_@;;

os get vendor - there is no such thing as an OS vendor, that's where the invalid query is coming from. See the available properties - there's a Version, but no Vendor:

C:\>wmic os get /?

Property get operations.
USAGE:

GET [<property list>] [<get switches>]
NOTE: <property list> ::= <property name> | <property name>,  <property list>

The following properties are available:

And there is no /DOMAIN option in wmic either.

C:\>wmic /?

[global switches] <command>

The following global switches are available:
/NAMESPACE           Path for the namespace the alias operate against.
/ROLE                Path for the role containing the alias definitions.
/NODE                Servers the alias will operate against.
/IMPLEVEL            Client impersonation level.
/AUTHLEVEL           Client authentication level.
/LOCALE              Language id the client should use.
/PRIVILEGES          Enable or disable all privileges.
/TRACE               Outputs debugging information to stderr.
/RECORD              Logs all input commands and output.
/INTERACTIVE         Sets or resets the interactive mode.
/FAILFAST            Sets or resets the FailFast mode.
/USER                User to be used during the session.
/PASSWORD            Password to be used for session login.
/OUTPUT              Specifies the mode for output redirection.
/APPEND              Specifies the mode for output redirection.
/AGGREGATE           Sets or resets aggregate mode.
/AUTHORITY           Specifies the <authority type> for the connection.
/?[:<BRIEF|FULL>]    Usage information.

You could try:

wmic /NODE:"servername" /USER:"yourdomain\administrator" OS GET Name

It will prompt for your password.
