Hello there, thank you @sudo-suhas for reporting this issue and welcome to gops!

So the issue is that our dependencies that are used by Windows are severely out-of-date.

wmi, uses go-ole, yet our version of go-ole is at 0e87ea779d9deb219633b828a023b32e1244dd57

gops/Gopkg.lock

Lines 10 to 14 in 09ff00a

	[[projects]]
	name = "github.com/go-ole/go-ole"
	packages = [".","oleutil"]
	revision = "0e87ea779d9deb219633b828a023b32e1244dd57"
	version = "v1.2.0"

of which that commit is from November 2015 go-ole/go-ole@0e87ea7

and there have been updates to go-ole in February 2018 go-ole/go-ole@a1ec82a, so almost 3 years out of date.

Unfortunately neither Jaana nor I have Windows computers so testing it out has been iffy. @rakyll perhaps let's also setup Travis or AppVeyor to run it on Windows as well.

@sudo-suhas while you are here, if you'd like fix this and perhaps make a contribution if interested:
a) Please get dep https://github.com/golang/dep#dep
b) cd $(go env GOPATH)/src/github.com/google/gops and update dep

dep ensure -update github.com/go-ole/go-ole

c) Try rebuilding gops

Hope this helps!

https://github.com/d5/cc is not working due to which some Go libraries are not working. Please fix immediately

[rakyll]

@harshal7harshal Could you give us details on why cc is not building/working?

Hi Rakyll,

Above url cannot be accessed. It's giving 404

Thanks

Thanks
