.SYNOPSIS
WQL reference: Network Login Profiles (Win32_NetworkLoginProfile).
.DESCRIPTION
A minimal example of querying Win32_NetworkLoginProfile with a raw WQL SELECT
statement via Get-CimInstance -Query — useful as a WMI Query
Language reference, independent of any particular scripting
language's WMI binding.
The same query string works with Get-WmiObject -Query (older
PowerShell), GetObject("winmgmts:...").ExecQuery(...) in VBScript
or JScript, and ManagementObjectSearcher in C# — only the syntax
around the query changes, not the WQL itself.
