Question

How to find corresponding WMI/COM object for any given Windows Registry key? Is there any useful table of this mapping on the web or function in the API?

(Saying “any” I mean any, for which such a mapping exists.)

Edit:

I’m asking because I have discovered that some WMI objects reflect their values to the Windows Registry keys.

For example there is mapping from

root\cimv2:Win32_OSRecoveryConfiguration.AutoReboot

to

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\CrashControl\AutoReboot

For the WMI part you can read the MappingStrings qualifier of the WMI class or you can use a tool like the WMI Delphi code creator to get this info.

Also you can read this article How obtain the source of the WMI Data to see a delphi sample code.
