Managing System Information from the command line

In addition to the System Information support tool in Help and Support Center, you can use the msinfo32 command to view information about a computer that you are managing. With this command, you can:

  • Use System Information from a batch file.

  • Create .nfo files or .txt files that contain information from specified categories.

  • Open System Information, displaying only specified categories.

  • Save a System Information file without opening the System Information tool.

  • Start System Information for a remote computer. (You must have the appropriate permissions.)

  • Create a shortcut that opens System Information in a commonly used configuration.

For more information about the msinfo32 command, see Msinfo32. For information about other command-line utilities, see Command-line reference A-Z. For information about manageability, see Management Strategies and Tools.
