about-me: Provide a Windows version
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I would like the consistency of having the "About me"-service also in the basic service-set on Windows servers.
Describe the solution you'd like
Port about-me to Windows or write a Windows version and add the service to the Windows service-set.

Any updates on this?
An about-me version for Windows would be very useful.
You can help by looking at the output of the linux version and considering/telling us which command-line calls are necessary in Windows for each section (without tools to install).
Let me help you - to be more specific: To make about-me behave more or less the same on Windows as it does on Linux, we need to collect the following information using cmdline calls.
How to...
- get Kernel/Windows version
- get if running on bare metal or not
- get the hypervisor software Windows is running on
- get boot mode (uefi/legacy)
- get birthday
- get list of features (essential for safe operation of Windows in a datacenter)
- get list of installed software (software of interest)
- get list of installed tools (tools of interest)
- get list of non-default local users
- get whether Windows boots into GUI or not
- get list of enabled services
- get list of enabled task scheduler jobs
There may be others that are Windows-only and might be of interest.
Yes, I can gather some info on this. I think we could get some hints from Ansible facts. I will invest some time on this!
I am still working on this, I am preparing a MVP/draft version of the about-me script on Windows.
I think I'll be able to work on this during October!
