How do I locate an COM IID??

[Shintaro]

Hi,

I am messing around with some apps that use Sun.....err.....Oracles VirtualBox. And it comes up with the error about a IID. The thing is I don't know how to find the IID to try and workout a solution.
Please see the attached image for the error.

Cheers
Andrew

In a command prompt:

wmic PRODUCT list full /format:htable >"%userprofile%\My Documents\0.html"

That should allow you to determine the Installation ID. Just open the 0.html file after it is created. You can of course name it something other than 0.html; that is just an example.

Make sure to run the command with administrative privileges by either running as an administrator or using the run as command in XP if this is in Windows XP.
