File and Printer Sharing Status

How do I check programatically if 'File and Printer sharing' is enabled for a specific network adapter ? enter image description here

Solution

  • I guess this is what you are looking for - 

    Get-NetAdapterBinding | ? {$_.DisplayName -eq 'File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks' -and $_.Name -eq 'ethernet'}

Name                           DisplayName                                        ComponentID          Enabled
----                           -----------                                        -----------          -------
Ethernet                       File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks    ms_server            True
