WMI Provider Host issue

Hi,

I am getting this statement popping on the screen stating it stopped working. It was the first time I have seen it. It occurred when I was on Facebook, and played the game. I have not installed any softwares lately.

I just closed it and then it came back in 5 mins later. I then clicked to send it, and it came back mins later. It still pop in few mins later. What should I do?


Right now, I am defragging it and will restart it. Hope it will go away, but if it has not, then I will update it here.

Thanks for the help.

Also try a system file check.

System File Check.

Go to start search and type CMD

While holding shift and ctrl press enter
(this opens elevated command prompt,command prompt as an administrator)

Type sfc /scannow in the box that opens (note the space)

If errors are found reboot and run the test again up to 3 times.

It is not working for me. I could not get it to come up at all.

I restarted the computer after defragged.

Right now, I am not getting the statement of WMI Provider Host appearing. Looks like it is going away and fine now. However, if it comes back, I will stop here to let you know.

Thanks again.

When you type CMD into the Start search box it should show above.
you can then right click and run as administrator
