I'm seeing the wmic is not recognized on the getNetworkInterfaces()

@tonesto7 ... OK, was not aware of this ... anyway I replaced already a lot of wmic calls, will also replace the few ones that are still in place. Will let you know as soon as I completed this. Thank you!

Typical MS crap removing things for no reason.
Thanks for the fast response!!!

@tonesto7 ... well it was marked as deprecated already. But I did not know that it now was removed ;-) I need to do all of this in conjunction with #611 ... as I will need to use PowerShell commands now. Unfortunately it seems that

• this takes more resources (cpu load) to spin up a powershell shell
• for some reason in my version it does not shut down the session
  ... will do this whole thing on Wednesday.

@tonesto7 ... in the latest version 5.9.10 I now completely dropped wmic in favor of powerShell ... can you test it on your side?

Looks good... Thanks for the fast turn around on this
