I've been messing around with wbem and when I run the query "SELECT * FROM Win32_OperatingSystem" it returns nothing. This is while connected to my own box, I've tested this on another Win7 box and I get the same results. However, if I use WMIExplorer, I can see the information. UAC is disabled, no security software, and the WMI and RPC services are running. Here is a screenshot of what I'm seeing. http://grab.by/3B5X Does anyone have any idea of what's going on here?

Hi, Since it is source code related issue, please discuss in the following forum. MSDN - Windows General CategoryArthur Xie - MSFT

How is this a source code issue? I'm using utilities that were built into Windows?

Does anyone have an idea of what's going on with this issue?

I figured out what the issue was, I found that you actually have to double click that to get the results. User error.
