I like   Get-WmiObject Win32 computersystem   format-custom     That seems to expand everything   There s also a show-object command in the PowerShellCookbook module that does it in a GUI   Jeffrey Snover  the PowerShell creator  uses it in his unplugged videos  recommended    Although most often I use  Get-WmiObject Win32 computersystem   fl     It avoids the  format ps1xml file that defines a table or list view for the object type  if there are any  The format file may even define column headers that don t match any property names

Try this   Get-WmiObject -Class  Win32 computersystem    Format-List   Get-WmiObject -Class  Win32 computersystem    Format-List -Property     For certain objects  PowerShell provides a set of formatting instructions that can affect either the table or list formats  These are usually meant to limit the display of reams of properties down to just the essential properties  However there are times when you really want to see everything  In those cases Format-List   will show all the properties  Note that in the case where you re trying to view a PowerShell error record  you need to use  Format-List   -Force  to truly see all the error information  for example    error 0    Format-List   -force   Note that the wildcard can be used like a traditional wilcard this   Get-WmiObject -Class  Win32 computersystem    Format-List M
