A clue for one addition is the task was not as easy as using cmd script!

 

Yep, it a bit awkward to get the task stuff in AutoIT -- unlike it is easier in cmd/ps...

So i have done a couple of checks, one for task of it and the other if the file exists.

It may be only one part of the w11 checking but it the main one that sends that info back to m$ that the device is all green for w11 or if not why...

The GUI QT is slowly being enhanced, it will eventually replace the old cmd run version which then be left as a legacy version on its own download area.

 

Exactly why the old one is being put as a legacy download when the time comes.

 

Something added to GUI QT in the Graphics tab, but may need extra work when more than one monitor detected.

As i not have more than 1 connected i am not 100% sure it will just use the first monitor data...

Code:

First Monitor Name/Model        : S241HL
First Monitor Serial Number     : xxxxE0218549

Just getting that info was a major challenge as you have to decode the info from any EDID in the registry!

Postable/GUI obfuscates the Serial number, Private log shows in full.

Hmm needs a bit of work when the default monitor has no EDID

But can work around that just be no serial number, i can hopefully get Name and Model....

 

Managed to hopefully get the manufacturer, model/type and devicepnpid if it available to read. Some monitors/tv's may just say Generic etc.

Taking a Tv break now so will resume tomorrow morning.

Have gui part almost sorted, just got to sort out the saved log part.

If all gone to plan if more than one monitor connected the qt should show the data, limited to 4 monitor entries as no other space in that tab section.

 

Hopefully this routine now works even with more than one display attached...

Graphics section results from my main PC (one display):

Some values may not be accurate due to 32 bit API limitations.
Monitor data may not always be accurate due to no information available.

There is quite a bit of error checking done in this code section but as always some errors 'may' slip through, if nothing can be obtained then 'Generic' etc may be shown instead.

On some TV's used as monitors the Extended ID was not always present and so confused the EID routine i used originally, so have used a more relaxed WMI method, it won't show the 'Serial Number' now but then that should be on a sticker on the display or via its settings/options button/menu anyway. The EID method can obtain more data but it gets a bit too complex to decode it all so this WMI method is simpler and should technically work on all displays if the info is in the registry etc.

Have limited it to showing a max of four displays as there is no room in the GUI section unless i remove the PNPDeviceID lines to squeeze another 1 or 2 in, there again is it worth it?

I have noticed on Win 11's Notepad replacement 'App' that some linefeeds 'CRLF' are ignored and so the text looks a bit squashed? But viewing the text/log file in this case on W10 using the original Notepad all looks ok!

 

Have uploaded this GUI QT to the private beta test area and will probably not be released for a while until i can make sure the multi-display part works, or it may only just show the main monitor in use at the time of the QT being run...

It seems can only retrieve the first monitor

PShell goes nuts if an array is empty or some silly cryptic error that only the dev who wrote the OS code in PS would know

The non ps code is set up to look for multiple monitors but wmi only shows primary one?

May have to think more about that section, i can sort of get more info using p/shell but if certain results are nul then it throws its dummy out with silly red lettered cryptic crap...

Plus ps is painfully slow...

 

At the moment i cant get a reliable method to find more than one display as the 'Win32_DesktopMonitor' does not seem to show more than one display?

It has potential to show more but using a laptop with its main lcd and a HDMI tv/monitor connected it only shows/detects the Primary laptop one as found using Win32_DesktopMonitor wmi api.

Until i can find a better method that will work on all supported OS's it may just show the Primary monitor data for the time being, I have adjusted the 'Notes' section in the Graphics tab and saved logs.

For example:
---------------------------------------------
Some values may not be accurate due to 32 bit API limitations.
Monitor/Display section is experimental and will be updated later.
Monitor data may only show the 'Primary' display.
The name 'Generic' may be used when using some TV's etc.

 

This looked promising...
Until i tried it on Win 7 and WimiMonitorID is not present

Code:

strComputer = "."

'Get monitors with WMI
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" & "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\WMI")
Set colMonitors = objWMIService.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM WmiMonitorID")

For Each objMonitor in colMonitors

  'Convert model name to ASCII
  ProductId = ""
  For I = 0 To Ubound(objMonitor.UserFriendlyName)
    ProductId = ProductId & Chr(objMonitor.UserFriendlyName(I))
  Next

  Wscript.echo ProductId
Next

I wrote a PShell script that is more advanced and that too not work on 7 or below because it makes extensive use of the WmiMonitorID class and gives more data...

Took a while to 'sort of' understand PShell Arrays and how to use as a hashtable to convert 3 chars to the manufacturer name, i may not of got all the manufacturer 'codes' and those i missed will hopefully just show the abbreviated result or Generic instead.

Model/Type should hopefully show ok too or Generic depending if a null result.

I may add in the pshell version but that will only work on w8.1 -- (I think as cant find any info of minimum OS) -- and above and i will use the current single display code for below 8.x -- at least something will work on the older OS, may still not be perfect but better than nothing.

If the above vbscript not work on 8.x then the PS one wont either...

With the PS code i get:

True|Acer|S241HL|2|2017|DISPLAY\ACR0312\5&fd8cba9&0&UID4353_0

which from the above test of my PC using the script translates to:

True = Display Active (or connected)
Acer = Maker/Manufacturer (ACR would show if hashtable failed)
S241HL = Model/Type (or Generic if no data)
2 = Week of Manufacture
2017 = Year of manufacturer
DISPLAY\ACR.... = The DevicePNPID.

I can get the Monitor serial numbers and a few other things but i just settled on the main bits.

 

Hmm now the ps one not work on w11 wtf is wrong with m$ they cant make anything easy or standard.

Just like with the VideoRAM issue with greater than 4GB all over again...

Will leave the display/monitor data as it is for now, spent enough time on it to get no where.

 

It does get very frustrating as using WbemTest.exe (in the win 11 OS) and checking for WmiMonitorID it finds it!!

To test it:

Open wbemtest (Start > Run > wbemtest).

2. Click on the "Connect" button.

3. Enter root\wmi in the "Namespace" field and click on the "Connect" button.

4. Click on the "Open Class" button.

5. Enter WmiMonitorID in the "Enter Target Class Name:" field and click on the "OK" button.

And it shows as there!! ???

Dont edit anything in there or you could screw up your OS!! Just Close/exit.

 

Some progress that even works on win 11 - not tried 7/8.x yet but should 'technically' work as just using the WMI Win32_DesktopMonitor which appears to work from Vista and above - or so say m$!!

When a monitor driver is installed via OS/WU/Manually and detected then the GUI QT will scan the driver hashtable for a Manufacturer if possible. Or 'Unknown' or 'Default' will be used.

A Laptop:

Code:

========== Desktop Monitor 1 ==========
Manufacturer : AUO Corporation
Model/Type   : Generic PnP Monitor
PNPDeviceID  : DISPLAY\AUO47EC\4&3B56634&0&UID265988

When no detectable monitor name or no driver installed for it via OS/WU or manually installed.

PC on win11:

Code:

========== Desktop Monitor 1 ==========
Manufacturer : Generic as no monitor driver installed
Model/Type   : Generic Non-PnP Monitor
PNPDeviceID  : DISPLAY\DEFAULT_MONITOR\5&5FF5EA&0&UID512

The above are only examples as it can vary on the hardware etc...

But at least the main Monitor is shown if none of the others that may be connected.

Uploaded for private testing as need to find out if it actually works and if i need to adjust the hashtable for Manufacturers etc...

 

Time for a TV break, been working on this since 5:15am
