Automating Windows Administration

Description

Author Stein Borge has written a problem and solution-oriented text. In this follow-up edition, he thoroughly explains automating common administrative tasks for all business versions of Windows that rely on the Windows Script Host (WSH).

This book introduces new features of recent WSH versions, then discusses file, shell, and network operations using built-in WSH objects. Also included are lesser-known, but still important additions to WSH and registry operations.
