how to retrive device driver's inf files.

Happy New Year Guys!

My task: to retrieve a list of all device drivers on the system.

Required details: List of device drivers should contain, driver
name,manufacturer name, valid inf file path(eg
SYSTEM32/driverstore/foo.inf).

To accomplish the above task, I used the Win32_PnpEntity[WMI] class.
However, to my surprise, the Win32_PnpEntity class does not provide an inf
file path. To that end, I am asking if there are other ways to accomplish my
above task fufilling the required details.

Many Thanks.

Looking in wmiexplorer, it would seem that the Win32_PnPSignedDriver class
may help with this, once you have the PNP device ID from the PNPEntity class
query.
