Powershell... for Windows 7. I am trying to figure out how to use a powershell script to list the drivers for a given USB device. In my particular case this would be a Smartcard reader. I have figured out how to get SOME information by using "get-WmiObject win32_PNPEntity" (with an added where clause to single out the smartcard reader) and "get-WmiObject win32_PnPSignedDriver" but there are a few values I want to get that are in neither of those WMI objects". For example... when you open properties of a device in Device Manager and then click on the "Drivers" tab... and then you click on the "Driver Details" button. you get a list of driver files (Usually more than one). There MUST be a way to be able to list and store those file names and paths in Powershell... but I'm scratching my head on where Device Manager gets that data.
Can anyone help? Does anyone know which WMI object holds that info?
