Services problem with command

Hi everyone

$requiredServices = (Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_DependentService | Where-Object { $_.Antecedent -eq $service.Name }).Dependent

why this command doesnt work?
I want to get all requiredservices for $service.Name and list them in console. Can someone help me?

Hi, welcome to the forum :wave:

You’ve not provided enough information.

What do you mean by ‘doesn’t work’? Do you get any error messages?
How are you defining $service? That’s not included in your code.
What version of PowerShell are you using? WMI cmdlets are not available in PowerShell, only Windows PowerShell (you should be using Get-CIMInstance in both).

Please provide your full code and error messages, formatted as code (see below), and maybe we can get to the bottom of it.

Welcome to the forum. :wave:t4:

Why not using pure PowerShell?

Get-Service -Name $service.Name |
    Select-Object -ExpandProperty RequiredServices
