System.Management.Linq

Exposes WMI and system/network management objects as strongly-typed C# classes, enabling LINQ-to-WQL queries for expressive, type-safe access to management data.

Features

  • Strongly-typed C# classes for WMI and system/network management objects
  • LINQ-to-WQL support for expressive and type-safe queries
  • Easy access to management data for .NET developers

Getting Started

Prerequisites

  • .NET 8.0 or .NET 9.0 SDK
  • Windows OS with Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) enabled

Installation

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/Triogap/System.Management.Linq.git

Usage

Note: Running WMI queries may require elevated permissions.

Here�s an example of how to check if an explorer process is running on the system:

using System.Management.Linq;
using System.Management.Types.Win32;

var process = ManagementObjects.Get<Process>()
    .FirstOrDefault(p => p.Name.StartsWith("Explorer"));

if (process != null)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Explorer process is running with ProcessId: {process.ProcessId}");
}
else
{
    Console.WriteLine("Explorer process is not running.");
}
