A technician is writing a script intended to automatically gather inventory data from Windows workstations across the company network. The script will run monthly and compile information such as system specifications, installed software, and peripheral devices. Which of the following scripting capabilities is the MOST appropriate to use for this task?
PowerShell scripting (.ps1) is the most comprehensive and suitable tool for gathering rich and detailed inventory data across a network of Windows-based workstations. It can easily access a wide range of system information through cmdlets, which are specialized commands, and can interact with Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) to retrieve detailed inventory data.
