WMI repair failed twice , new computer . SOLVED

(1/3) > >>

herb:
Hello, I noticed errors relating to WMI in event logs and used "Windows repair all in one" in "safe mode" twice with just the WMI repair checked off.  I made sure to go through all the first steps and there was no errors of any kind .

I would like to know how can I correct these missing files in WMI as I don't want to have to use the recovery partition because it's packed with Dell bloat ware .  This is a Win 7 professional OS 64 bit.

I would be happy to purchase the professional version of Shane's program if I knew how to add a custom script that would add the WMI files I am missing .

Thank you very much

Did this machine come with Win 7 x64 Pro or do you have an install disk that includes SP1 ?

It's possible that a repair install may resolve which won't affect your programs or personal stuff.

If the machine came with that version of Windows, then prior to a repair install you can go Start > type Slui 3 > press enter and enter your COA sticker key and then you will be able to activate the repair install with that key.

If you don't have such an install disk and you would like one, then PM me your address and I will send you a couple.

The machine came with Win 7 SP1 Professional installed ,  the only thing that came with the computer is a Win 10 Pro install disk for if and when i want to use Win 10 . 

I have not been able to find a product key code anywhere on this computer , there is a product ID code but it's not an activation code that i would need to download a Win 7 SP1 Professional ISO on Microsoft's website.

Where would the COA sticker be located ?

Thank you

It would be a Microsoft sticker somewhere on the case if it's a desktop and on the underside if a laptop.

It will be a 5x5 alphanumeric number.

I had to use Magical Jelly Bean key finder since Dell says the key's are built into the actual system now but it pulled two keys , one for the Product ID which i already had and one for the CD key which has 25 alpha numeric #'s.

Apparently Dell scrapped COA #'s quite awhile ago according to their website.
