Get CPU Temperature With PowerShell
# Please note that this is quite old at this point and may or may not work for you. I leave it here for historical purposes
# and just in case it can help someone. I think I may have been using Windows 7 when I wrote this.
function Get-Temperature {
$t = Get-WmiObject MSAcpi_ThermalZoneTemperature -Namespace "root/wmi"
$currentTempKelvin = $t.CurrentTemperature / 10
$currentTempCelsius = $currentTempKelvin - 273.15
$currentTempFahrenheit = (9/5) * $currentTempCelsius + 32
return $currentTempCelsius.ToString() + " C : " + $currentTempFahrenheit.ToString() + " F : " + $currentTempKelvin + "K"
}
# Save in your c:\users\yourName\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\modules\ directory
# in sub directory get-temperature as get-temperature.psm1
# You **must** run as Administrator.
# It will only work if your system & BIOS support it. If it doesn't work, I can't help you.
# Just type get-temperature in PowerShell and it will spit back the temp in Celsius, Farenheit and Kelvin.

Bought my key at partner Microsoft https://hypestkey.com/category/microsoft-windows/windows-11/
That worked for me thanks.

Key work great for upgrade from home to pro

The key arrived almost immediately after I completed the purchase, and the activation process was seamless. I simply entered the key, followed the instructions, and within minutes, my Windows 11 Pro was fully activated without any problems. It felt like a huge relief since I didn't have to worry about expiration or activation errors.
