Get-WmiObject win32 classes only?

Question

In PowerShell you can use the Get-WmiObject cmdlet to grab WMI classes.

I have noticed that I can only gain access to win32 classes, can I gain access in PowerShell to any other classes besides the win32_*?

get-wmiobject -list

Will give a list of available classes on your machine. Is that what you were asking?

You can also supply a namespace with the -namespace parameter to list the classes in other namespaces besides root\CIMV2
