I will have to give this a shot on Monday. We are a school and this is a teachers laptop. They were not here today and not back until Monday. I'll let you know, thanks!

Looking at the results of the command execution, it seems that the WMI service on your computer is not working properly.

In general, you will need to do some work to recover from this situation, such as reinstalling the driver or rebuilding the WMI repository. In some cases, you may need to reinstall Windows.

I'll take a look at WMI. We have software that uses WMI to scan and gather information, not getting any other errors. Thanks!
