# Check Free Space PS Script
Check Free Space is a PowerShell script that allows AD Admins to check the used/max HDD space on all drives on a remote PC on the domain.
<br>
## Prerequisites
Before you begin, ensure you have met the following requirements:
- PowerShell with the [ActiveDirectory](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/activedirectory/?view=windowsserver2022-ps) module installed (Windows only).
- Proper permissions granted by your Admin.
<br>
### Using Check Free Space
To use Check Free Space, follow these steps:
1. Place the `check-free-space` folder at a location of your choosing
2. Open the script in a notepad program
3. Replace $hostname with the hostname of the target PC
4. Save the file
5. Run the script in PowerShell
6. The results will be printed out in the terminal
<br>
### Notes
Moving forward, future PowerShell versions no longer support Get-WmiObject. So if all of a sudden you see the error message like “RPC Server is unavailable”, its probably time to switch over to Get-CimInstance instead. The parameters are the same for Win32_LogicalDisk. Simply replace Get-WmiObject with Get-CimInstance and you are good to go.
