The Get-WmiObject cmdlet in PowerShell is part of the CimCmdlets module, which is built-in to PowerShell. The module is automatically loaded when you start a PowerShell session, so you don't need to explicitly import it.

However, if you want to locate the file location of the CimCmdlets module on your system, you can use the following command:

powershell
(Get-Module -ListAvailable -Name CimCmdlets).Path

Running this command will display the file location (path) of the CimCmdlets module on your system.

Typically, the CimCmdlets module is located in the PowerShell module directory, which is stored in one of the following paths:

  • For Windows PowerShell:

    makefile
    C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules\CimCmdlets
  • For PowerShell Core:

    makefile
    C:\Program Files\PowerShell\7\Modules\CimCmdlets

Please note that the exact path may vary depending on the version and installation of PowerShell on your system. The command mentioned above will help you determine the precise location of the CimCmdlets module in your PowerShell environment.
