are you asking what scripting language is the best in order to do this? If so then I would need to know if you are doing this on every machine or if you are running it from one host to perform the task on many remote hosts? I will also need to know what the OS is of the PC’s and if you are running from one to many what OS is on the host that will be execuing the script. My first answer is Powershell is by far the best way if running on an OS that supports it. Let me know and I will be happy to help you with the script if you need it.
