Show processes running on remote computer using WMI

I'm using WMI in order to run commands on a remote machine. For now, and I know it's as it should be, the process which is being run is not shown on the screen of the remote, I can only see it running when I open the task manager.

Like I said, I know it's ok.

My question is: Is there any way to overcome this issue and force the remote to show the executed process? (e.g. see calc's gui when I open it, or show notepad or cmd etc.).

Solution

  • Not possible using WMI. Three possible workarounds:

    • psexec (option -i)
    • scheduled tasks (you use schtasks /create)
    • in older systems: at /interactive
