I'm currently writing a script to access approximately 400 computers for
removing a particular app from the system. I'm having problems getting
results using the wmi c.CIM_DataFile (name=file). When I use file as a
variable which equals to the path to the app I want to remove I don't
get nothing back, however, if I hard code the path, I get results. See
snippet below for an example of what I'm talking about. I appreciate in
advance for any help I can get. Thank you.
import wmi
import re
def queryFile(file, host):
print '[Debug nukeXmas()]:' + file
c = wmi.WMI(host)
for f in c.CIM_DataFile (name=file):
print 'Install Date:', f.InstallDate
def queryFile2(file, host):
print '[Debug nukeXmas()]:' + file
c = wmi.WMI(host)
for f in c.CIM_DataFile
(name="C:\\DOCUME~1\\profileName\\LOCALS~1\\Temp\\Temporary Directory 1
for deluxetreee (2).zip\\Christmas.exe"):
print 'Install Date:', f.InstallDate
#File to query
string = "C:\DOCUME~1\profileName\LOCALS~1\Temp\\Temporary Directory 1
for deluxetreee (2).zip\Christmas.exe"
#Substitute "\" to "\\"
path = re.sub('\\\\', '\\\\\\\\', string)
#Close query path with double quotes
file = '"'+path+'"'
#I'm having problems here, query brings back nothing
queryFile(file, '172.27.1.5')
#Here, I hard code the path to the exe and it works
queryFile2(file, '172.27.1.5')
