Ghost21 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 OK since moving and taking the plunge over to Windows 7 things have been looking and runnign good.. until now.. I used to run this command on WindowsXP --> Run(@ComSpec & ' /c ' & "compmgmt.msc /computer=\\" & $device, @TempDir, @SW_SHOW) I then could right click on the computer and click on properties and look at other system properties and change the computer description.. Windows 7 has removed that....Noooooooo Anyway I can get that ability back ?? Help.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrewManNH Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Use PSExec to run it on the target computer http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897553, that might be a work around for Windows 7.

BrewManNH Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 I found this command line that might work for you, I haven't tried it though so YMMV.psexec.exe \\REMOTECOMPUTER net config server /srvcomment:"DESCRIPTION" If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise.

BrewManNH Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 That command is supposed to allow you to set the description remotely, It doesn't open a GUI on the target computer, it just changes the description.
