Error: spawn wmic ENOENT windows 11 #662

WMIC seems to have become an optional feature in the latest builds of windows 11 and is needed by the VSCode extension to "flash firmware", giving a Error: spawn wmic ENOENT error if it's missing. It'd be worth adding error handling that directs people to docs on how to enable that

indeed, it is deprecated --> https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administration/windows-commands/wmic
