InstallDate
Data type: datetime
This property has not been implemented yet. It returns a NULL
value by default.
Since it hasn't been implemented, it's hard to know for absolute
certain, but generally, it is a 64bit value similar if not exactly
like FILETIME. If not NULL, try using FileTimeToSystemTime() on it.

NetworkAddresses
Data type: string array
Array of network addresses for an adapter.
This property has not been implemented yet. It returns a NULL
value by default.
Since it hasn't been implemented, it's hard to know for absolute
certain, but generally, it is a sequence of cstrings, with the final
string being empty. As in NA[] = {"One\0Two\0Three\0\0"};

I don't know how many there are, but if not NULL, [0] should be
readable.
