Answer 1

You can use the regex to match what you want.. in case you dont want to use split

using System.IO;
using System;
using System.Text.RegularExpressions;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        var input = "\\DF3\\root\\cimv2:Win32_Group.Domain=\"DF3\",Name=\"Administrators\"";
        Console.WriteLine(Regex.Match(input, "Name=\\\"(.*?)\\\"").Groups[1].Value);
    }
}

Answer 2

You can do something like this:

var input = "\\DF3\\root\\cimv2:Win32_Group.Domain=\"DF3\",Name=\"Administrators\"";

var name = input.Split(new[] { "Name=" }, StringSplitOptions.None)
                .Last().Trim('"');

First Split your string by Name=, get the last part then use Trim and remove the double-quotes.
