Windows could not stop the windows management instrumentation

If the problem persists you may need to repair or reinstall the operating system. Stop the service "Windows Management Instrumentation". Type "net stop winmgmt" and confirm with "Y". Start the service "Windows Management Instrumentation" again. Type "net start winmgmt".

Start all DocuWare Services again. The WMI Service is repaired. Change the folder name from Repository to Repository. Switch back to command prompt and type net start winmgmt and hit enter to execute. Close all the windows and reboot the computer and now try opening the system information. Was this reply helpful?
