[Description("The Win32_WMISetting class is a Singleton class that contains the operational parameters for the WMI service. Win32_WMISetting can only have one instance. This single instance always exists for each Win32 system, and cannot be deleted. Additional instances cannot be created."): ToSubClass, AMENDMENT, LOCALE(1033)]

	[Description("The InstallationDirectory property contains the directory path where the WMI software has been installed. The default location is: \\system32\\wbem."): ToSubClass] string InstallationDirectory;
	[Description("The BuildVersion property contains version information for the currently installed WMI service."): ToSubClass] string BuildVersion;
	[Description("The MofSelfInstallDirectory property contains the directory path for applications that install MOF files to the CIM repository. WMI automatically compiles any MOF files placed in this directory and, depending on its success, moves the MOF to a subdirectory labeled \"good\" or \"bad\". If the \"autorecover\" pragma is included, the fully qualified file name is added to the AutorecoverMofs list used when WMI is initializing or recovering the repository. The list determines the order in which MOFs are compiled."): ToSubClass] string MofSelfInstallDirectory;

	[Description("The ASPScriptDefaultNamespace property contains the namespace used by calls from the script API if none is specified by the caller."): ToSubClass] string ASPScriptDefaultNamespace;
	[Description("The EnableEvents property indicates whether the WMI event subsystem should be enabled.\nValues: TRUE or FALSE, If TRUE,then the event subsystem is enabled."): ToSubClass] boolean EnableEvents;
	[Description("The HighThresholdOnClientObjects property specifies the maximum rate provider created objects can be delivered to clients. To accommodate speed differentials between providers and clients, WMI holds objects in queues before delivering them to consumers.. WMI slows down the addition of new objects into the queue when the low threshold is reached. If this does not help, and high threshold (specified by this property) is reached, WMI will accept no more objects from providers and return WBEM_E_OUT_OF_MEMORY to the clients."): ToSubClass] uint32 HighThresholdOnClientObjects;

To accommodate speed differentials between providers and clients, WMI holds objects in queues before delivering them to consumers.. If the rate of requests for objects grows out of control, WMI gradually slows down the creation of new objects to match the client's rate of use. This slowdown starts when the rate at which objects are being created exceeds the value of this property. The slowdown continues until equilibrium is achieved, or the high threshold is reached."): ToSubClass] uint32 LowThresholdOnClientObjects;
	[Description("The MaxWaitOnClientObjects property specifies the amount of time a newly created object waits to be used by the client before it is discarded and an error value is returned."): ToSubClass] uint32 MaxWaitOnClientObjects;

To accommodate speed differentials between providers and clients, WMI queues events before delivering them to consumers..

	[Description("The LowThresholdOnEvents property specifies the rate at which  WMI will start to slow the delivery of new events. to accommodate speed differentials between providers and clients, WMI queues events before delivering them to consumers. If the queue grows out of control, WMI slows down the delivery of events gradually to get them in line with the client's rate . This slowdown starts when the rate at which events are generated exceeds the value of the this property. The slowdown continues until either the equilibrium is achieved, or the high threshold is reached."): ToSubClass] uint32 LowThresholdOnEvents;
	[Description("The MaxWaitOnEvents property specifies the amount of time an event sent to a client is queued before being discarded."): ToSubClass] uint32 MaxWaitOnEvents;
	[Description("The EnableStartupHeapPreallocation property indicates whether WMI will start with a pre-allocated heap.\nValues: TRUE or FALSE. If TRUE, then a pre-allocated heap with the size of LastStartupHeapPreallocation is created when WMI is initialized."): ToSubClass] boolean EnableStartupHeapPreallocation;
	[Description("The LastStartupHeapPreallocation property specifies the size of the pre-allocated heap created by WMI during initialization."): ToSubClass] uint32 LastStartupHeapPreallocation;

WMI is a huge subject, so therefore it is practically impossible to provide a comprehensive example program that covers anything. However, the book �Network programming in .NET� (Buy at Amazon UK) (Buy at Amazon US) covers a much wider scope of WMI, and explains how to leverage it to access the bounty of information held within this vast, yet simple object model.
