Is there a way to generate WMI code/classes?

Question

How do you generate C# classes for accessing WMI?

Answer 1

To generate strongly typed WMI classes, use the Management Strongly typed class generator (MgmtClassGen.exe). It's usually in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio X\SDK\vX\Bin. The parameters are at MSDN and they even have a page describing the code generated. If you have to do a lot of work with WMI, it's a lifesaver.
