With IPHost Network Monitor you can run WMI Compression Method monitoring of various devices in your network.
To create a WMI monitor for Compression Method, provide host name (it must be a Windows host) and specify custom WQL query:
The CompressionMethod property is a free form string indicating the algorithm or tool used to compress the logical file. If it is not possible (or not desired) to describe the compression scheme (perhaps because it is not known), use the following words: "Unknown" to represent that it is not known whether the logical file is compressed or not, "Compressed" to represent that the file is compressed but either its compression scheme is not known or not disclosed, and "Not Compressed" to represent that the logical file is not compressed.
The Win32_ShortcutFile class represent files that are shortcuts to other files, directories, and commands.
IPHost Network Monitor is an advanced and easy tool for monitoring LAN and WAN networks, network servers, workstations and TCP/IP devices. Use IPHost Network Monitor to monitor your servers, domains, computers and devices.
