Haha, yup. To be clear, I have no illusions/expectations there. For my current use case the same info might be in WMI. If not though I might consider taking a crack at it.

Now someone just has to step up to implement it. :)

Rob/Sean, thanks ever so much for the response and clarifications. The approach makes perfect sense.
FWIW, I just wrote up a feature request along the lines of what Sean outlined: https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fwixtoolset%2Fissues%2Fissues%2F6358&data=04%7C01%7Cbryand%40recastsoftware.com%7Cc6f29031a3ec4216b31208d8d384e474%7C9315bb44634846c6bd378880b87e774e%7C0%7C0%7C637491915484936991%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C2000&sdata=%2BFHK5a1ShlZcNtlDXpNgGXnxYhBwX68Sokylq14RtZo%3D&reserved=0. Though I appreciate it's probably a niche use case.
