        Try
            Dim searcher As New ManagementObjectSearcher("root\CIMV2",
                    "SELECT * FROM Win32_ComputerSystemProduct")

            For Each queryObj As ManagementObject In searcher.Get()

                Console.WriteLine("-----------------------------------")
                Console.WriteLine("Win32_ComputerSystemProduct instance")

                readValue = "UUID: " & queryObj("UUID")
                RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text & Chr(13) & Chr(10) & readValue
            Next
        Catch err As Exception

What errors? Please do not expect us to guess what you see on your screen.

1 solution

At a guess - and that's all it can be given the absence of information - you haven't added a reference to the System.Management.dll: ManagementObjectSearcher Class (System.Management) | Microsoft Docs[^]
