Wyleyrabbit Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 Hi, I need a way to figure out whether the user's machine is running Windows XP Home, Windows XP Pro, or something else. I found the various @OS macros, but from what I can see, none of them will tell me if the user's machine is Home or Pro. Is there a registry key somewhere that tells me this? Thanks.

But it's an ugly, awkward, long-way-around, very microsoft-ish kind of answer... Maybe some scripter out there could turn that into an AutoIT UDF... hmm... hint, hint...

DeFuser Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 I don´t know whether that helps you, but I think the file c:\winnt\system32\GPEDIT.MSC only exits on WIN XP Pro. That approach sounds like an excellent idea to me - Something that I would come up with on my own actually. Of course, I am new to this ... So be careful!

Moderators SmOke_N Posted February 5, 2006 Moderators Share Posted February 5, 2006 (edited) Requires Beta, from a post that Valuater made yesterday I believe, I just pulled the info you were asking about:$objWMIService = objget("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\.\root\cimv2") $colSettings = $objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_OperatingSystem") For $objOperatingSystem in $colSettings $Type = StringMid($objOperatingSystem.Caption, 22) MsgBox(0, '', $Type) Next Edit: Narrowed it down to the actual type... Edited February 5, 2006 by SmOke_N Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.
