WMI Code Generator Screenshot
First select a class.
The "Properties" and "Methods" fields will show the names of the properties and methods available for the selected class.
 
Next click one of the "Create ... Code" buttons to generate the code that will display all properties of the selected class, and their values, in the scripting language of your choice.
 
Then copy the code to the clipboard, and paste it into your favorite scripting editor.
 
After some optional "pruning", save your own custom WMI script.
