Good morning,
I have a WMI problem on a machine.

I was wondering if you had any tips?
or if I had to reinstall the machine directly...

Hi Jacky,

sometimes the WMI layer malfunctions. It then needs to be reset. We have an internal procedure for this, but I wonder if there isn't a wapt package lying around somewhere. I'll check with Simon and Bertrand and get back to you.

See you soon,

Denis
