Win32_SoftwareElement - SoftwareFeatures and SoftwareElements: A 'SoftwareFeature' is a distinct subset of a Product, consisting of one or more 'SoftwareElements'. Each SoftwareElement is defined in a Win32_SoftwareElement instance, and the association between a feature and its SoftwareFeature(s) is defined in the Win32_SoftwareFeatureSoftwareElement Association. Any component can be 'shared' between two or more SoftwareFeatures. If two or more features reference the same component, that component will be selected for installation if any of these features are selected.

NameSpace Path
\ROOT\CIMV2
PROPERTY	SMS_REPORT	CIMTYPE	DESCRIPTION
Attributes		UInt16	A bit map containing the remote execution options for the software element.
BuildNumber		String	The internal identifier for this compilation of this software element.
Caption		String	The Caption property is a short textual description (one-line string) of the object.
CodeSet		String	The code set used by this software element.
Description		String	The Description property provides a textual description of the object.
IdentificationCode		String	The value of this property is the manufacturer's identifier for this software element. Often this will be a stock keeping unit (SKU) or a part number.
InstallDate		DateTime	The InstallDate property is datetime value indicating when the object was installed. A lack of a value does not indicate that the object is not installed.
InstallState		SInt16	The current installed state for the software element.
LanguageEdition		String	The value of this property identifies the language edition of this software element. The language codes defined in ISO 639 should be used. Where the software element represents multi-lingual or international version of a product, the string multilingual should be used.
Manufacturer		String	Manufacturer of this software element
Name		String	The name used to identify this software element
OtherTargetOS		String	The OtherTargetOS property records the manufacturer and operating system type for a software element when the TargetOperatingSystem property has a value of 1 ("Other"). Therefore, when the TargetOperatingSystem property has a value of "Other", the OtherTargetOS property must have a non-null value. For all other values of TargetOperatingSystem, the OtherTargetOS property is to be NULL.
Path		String	The path to the installed software element. If the component is a registry key,the registry roots are represented numerically. For example, a registry path of "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft" would be returned as "01:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft". The registry roots returned are defined as follows:RootReturned Value HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT 00 HKEY_CURRENT_USER 01 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE 02 HKEY_USERS 03
SerialNumber		String	The assigned serial number of this software element.
SoftwareElementID		String	This is an identifier for this software element and is designed to be used in conjunction with other keys to create a unique representation of this CIM_SoftwareElement
SoftwareElementState		UInt16	The SoftwareElementState is defined in this model to identify various states of a software elements life cycle. - A software element in the deployable state describes the details necessary to successful distribute it and the details (conditions and actions) required to create a software element in the installable state (i.e., the next state). - A software element in the installable state describes the details necessary to successfully install it and the details (conditions and actions required to create a software element in the executable state (i.e., the next state). - A software element in the executable state describes the details necessary to successfully start it and the details (conditions and actions required to create a software element in the running state (i.e., the next state). - A software element in the running state describes the details necessary to monitor and operate on a start element.
Status		String	The Status property is a string indicating the current status of the object. Various operational and non-operational statuses can be defined. Operational statuses are "OK", "Degraded" and "Pred Fail". "Pred Fail" indicates that an element may be functioning properly but predicting a failure in the near future. An example is a SMART-enabled hard drive. Non-operational statuses can also be specified. These are "Error", "Starting", "Stopping" and "Service". The latter, "Service", could apply during mirror-resilvering of a disk, reload of a user permissions list, or other administrative work. Not all such work is on-line, yet the managed element is neither "OK" nor in one of the other states.
TargetOperatingSystem		UInt16	The TargetOperatingSystem property allows the provider to specify the operating system environment. The value of this property does not ensure binary executable. Two other pieces of information are needed. First, the version of the OS needs to be specified using the OS version check. The second piece of information is the architecture the OS runs on. The combination of these constructs allows the provider to clearly identify the level of OS required for a particular software element.
Version		String	Version should be in the form .. or .
