Hi,
here are some starters for accessing the bcd store from powershell by using WMI.
Open the Systemstore. When you want to open another BCD Store insert the path in the File paraemeter. Otherwise set “”
PS D:\> $oBCD=Get-CimClass -ClassName bcdstore -Namespace "root/wmi"
PS D:\> $oBCDStore=Invoke-CIMMethod -CimClass $oBCD -Name OpenStore -Arguments @{File=""}
Enumerate all BCDObjects in the store
PS D:\> $aBCOObjectsReturn=Invoke-CimMethod -InputObject $oBCDStore.store -MethodName EnumerateObjects -Arguments @{Type=[uint32]0x0}
Valid BCD objects are
enum BCDObjectType {
GlobalSettings = 0x10100002 # Windows Boot Manager
WindowsLoader = 0x10200003 # Windows Boot Loader
HibernateResumer = 0x10200004 # Resume from Hibernate
BootApplication = 0x10200005 # Custom boot application
LegacyOSLoader = 0x10300006 # Windows Legacy OS Loade
ModuleSettings = 0x20100000 # EMS Settings
BootLdrSettings = 0x20200003 # Boot Loader Settings
ResumeLdrSettings = 0x20200004 # Resume Loader Settings
}
For example all OSLoader objects
PS D:\> $aOSLOaders=$aBCOObjectsReturn.Objects|?{[string]::Format("0x{0:x}" ,$_.Type) -eq "0x10200003" }
Each objects has (sub) elements
For example get each elements of the first OSLoader
PS D:\> (Invoke-CimMethod -InputObject ($aOSLOaders[0] ) -MethodName EnumerateElements).Elements
All elements Boot manager element types
enum BCDElementtypes {
