The first book on the market intended as an introduction to WMI, with the goal of developing the reader's ability to write scripts independently. The book includes a large number of "ready to use" scripts, which can be implemented as they appear and customized with few changes. Through easy to read presentations of programming concepts and examples, the reader becomes familiar with XML standards. Each Script simplifies daily administrative tasks or allows for substituting third party programs for in-house ones.
The scripts included in the repository start with the most basic ones; the complexity of the scripts increases dramatically toward the end of the book to satisfy the needs of readers with more advanced skills and requirements.
