Bug report WPT and WMI

(1/3) > >>

Ok, here is how to replicate the issue. Install the new Windows Performance Tools on Windows 7 http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30652 and only install the Windows Performance Toolkit which works perfectly fine in Windows 7 and is 100% compatible. Now if you do a repair WMI with All in One, reboot...next time you start the recorder aka wprui.exe you'll be greeted with the error The WMI Data Service is Not Available!  :omg: Was working correctly before doing the repair.

In short something was broken. Luckily I have image backups of my System.

No need to restore from an image :-)

The WMI repair deletes the WMI repository and asks Windows to rebuild it. So anything that added something to the repository will be gone. Just like when secuity center says it doesnt see an antivirus. The AV when it updates itself puts it self back into the repository.

If you reinstall the windows tool it will put it self back in the repository of WMI :wink:

UPDATE: I have uninstalled Windows Performance Toolkit and reinstalled,reboots etc... No change, same error Shane.  :omg: It is an official bug. Please advise once fixed so I can update Windows Repair (All in One) build. :wink:

My OS: Windows 7 Ultimate (64bit)
Let me know if you need more info.

Shane:
Odd, I cant reproduce it.

I installed the WPT, I am on Windows 7 64 bit.

I then ran my WMI repair, I watched as the repository was deleted and rebuilt and now a smaller size. I then rebooted and ran C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.0\Windows Performance Toolkit\WPRUI.exe

And I dont have any errors.

I wonder if the problem isnt that it needs to be int he WMI but maybe the WMI didnt rebuild properly from the last repair?

Backup this folder, just so you can compare file sizes after the repair again
"C:\Windows\System32\wbem\Repository"

Then run my WMI repair again and then you can compare the sizes, the new ones should be smaller since it gets rebuilt.

My WMI repair does the exact steps that Microsoft says to do on their support pages :wink:
