This cmdlet is included in Windows PowerShell 2.0. In Windows PowerShell, this is made quite easy using the Register-WmiEvent cmdlet. To satisfy the requirements of these requests, it is sometimes sufficient to use temporary event registrations in WMI. Perusing through developer documentation on MSDN is not always what people would consider “easy.” To summarize, the secondary reason I developed this module, was to help spread the knowledge of WMI events, and to help make them easier for people to understand. Usually the person knows what they want to respond to, and what they want to occur, but perhaps are unaware of WMI events. Occasionally, I’ll come across forum posts, or e-mails on a mailing list, where someone wants something to occur in response to an event. Second, I have noticed over time that many people seem interested in responding to system-level events, by running some Windows PowerShell code, a VBScript, or an executable. First and foremost, I wanted to make working with WMI permanent event registrations easy from Windows PowerShell. There were several reasons that I began developing this module.

You can download this module for free, from, and there is ample documentation in the form of a PDF document, YouTube videos, and the wiki. I’ve been working on a Windows PowerShell module recently that makes working with Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) permanent event registrations much easier! The name of this module is PowerEvents - appropriately named to combine Windows PowerShell and WMI eventing. I will let Trevor introduce himself and his module. With Windows PowerShell 2.0 modules, the code that you write (or find) can be adapted to behave in the same manner as a Windows PowerShell cmdlet. Another great thing is that if something is missing, you can frequently write your own. One of the great things about Windows PowerShell is that if you do not like it, you can change it. As a matter of fact, Trevor Sullivan was thinking the same thing.
Hello ST, Microsoft Scripting Guy Ed Wilson here. I am wondering, if they are so useful, why there is not a Windows PowerShell cmdlet to allow one to interact with them? Hey, Scripting Guy! Your posts this week on permanent event consumers have been really cool.
