Query System Information Using Python in Windows 10












0















I am using a Windows 10 system and attempting to query the system for information using Python scripts. The scripts I am using attempt to garner the following information about the system:




  • CPU temperature

  • GPU memory usage

  • GPU information


Currently I'm stuck on getting CPU temperature. I've looked up many examples using the wmi package to attempt to query the system for information, but every single one I've come across either uses unsupported functionality of the wmi package or functionality that is NOT supported in windows via the psutil package.



Example of code that does not work in Windows:



import wmi
c = wmi.WMI()
print(c.Win32_TemperatureProbe()[0].CurrentReading)


(Is not supported because 'CurrentReading' has been removed)



import wmi
import psutil
c = wmi.WMI()
sensors = psutil.sensors_temperatures
print(sensors)


(On a Windows system, psutil does not contain the 'sensors_temperatures' attribute)



I know this should be possible with the wmi package but I cannot seem to figure it out.
