As you see in the following image, I indexed into the third object of the Win32_UserProfile array for brevity, and this is the information that’s available. I evaluated the information that was returned from the Win32_UserProfile class. So the dilemma was to create a function that would provide the same type of information for computers running Windows XP and later. However, the “minimum supported client” is Windows Vista with SP1, and the majority of our virtual workstations are running Windows XP. I did some research and found the Win32_UserProfile WMI class. I started thinking, and of course, the first place I turned was to Windows PowerShell. Several weeks ago our virtual guy asked me if there was a way to determine which virtual workstations have been recently used.
