Powershell - Listing services with file version details

In the event that you want to inventory system services and look at version details, you can do this with a combination of WMI and get-childitem to read file version details. This can be additionally modified to try to reduce the list of services to only non-microsoft products. Company details are in the Get-ChildItem versioninfo results.

Example:

(gci  (gwmi win32_service|select -first 1 -prop *|
 select -expand pathname).replace('"','')).versioninfo|
 select *

To collect the basic information for all services, you can run the following:

gwmi win32_service |
select name,caption,@{name="filepath";expression={$_.pathname.split("-")[0].split("/")[0].replace('"','')}} |
select name,caption,filepath,@{
 name="fileversion";
 expression={(gci $_.filepath | select -expand versioninfo).productversion}
 }
