Question

I want to be able to grab the File description string from the details tab on a .dll or a .sys file. I’ve tried to do this in a number of methods, but can’t get them to click. Is there anyway to do this through the command line to get it to produce an output to the screen. I’ve had no joy with FileVersion.description that is available using VB.

Any direction or help would be much appreciated here.

Thanks

langs = win32api.GetFileVersionInfo(ExecutablePath, r'\VarFileInfo\Translation')
key = r'StringFileInfo\%04x%04x\FileDescription' %(langs[0][0], langs[0][1])        
print (win32api.GetFileVersionInfo(ExecutablePath, key))
