Querying WMI class Win32_QuickFixEngineering returns mucho weirdo timestamps (C#)

问题

Class documentation here. The InstalledOn property is supposed to have a timestamp of (well, duh) when the fix was installed. But the doc doesn't say what's the format. I get something unintelligible, but it clearly means something. "01ca56402c180b70" is very obvious a hex number, but of what?

And another thing: why do the first few items look like GUIDs? What do they mean?

Da code:

ManagementScope scope;
ConnectionOptions options = new ConnectionOptions();
options.Username = tbUsername.Text;
options.Password = tbPassword.Password;
options.Authority = String.Format("ntlmdomain:{0}", tbDomain.Text);
scope = new ManagementScope(String.Format("\\\\{0}\\root\\cimv2", tbHost.Text), options);
scope.Connect();
ManagementObjectSearcher searcher = new ManagementObjectSearcher(scope, new ObjectQuery("SELECT * FROM Win32_QuickFixEngineering"));
foreach (ManagementObject queryObj in searcher.Get())
{
    wmiResults.Text += String.Format("{0} <{1}>: {2} (Installed {3} by '{4}')",
                                     queryObj["HotFixID"],
                                     queryObj["Caption"],
                                     queryObj["Description"],
                                     queryObj["InstalledOn"],
                                     queryObj["InstalledBy"]
                                     );
}

Da output:

回答1:

http://blogs.msdn.com/oldnewthing/archive/2003/09/05/54806.aspx gives info on interpreting different types of time stamps. It looks like you have a Win32 FILETIME.

回答2:

Installed <NTP TimeStamp> by '<Security Identifier>'

At the beginning of the string are NTP TimeStamps. You cant turn these into a System.DateTime very easily.

String s = "01c9d3cb9b46a87c";
DateTime dt = DateTime.FromFileTime(Int64.Parse(s, System.Globalization.NumberStyles.HexNumber));

For more information on NTP TimeStamps, read the RFC (don't worry, it's actually a "short" RFC) at: http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc958.html

At the end of the string are security identifiers for accounts Local System is 'S-1-5-18'.

For more information on security identifiers, see: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc780850%28WS.10%29.aspx
