WMI Service does not remain in "running" state

  1. WMI needs administrative privileges to run, so you must log in to the Traverse Windows server as a domain administrator or a Windows administrator. If running in a workgroup, you must have the same administrative username and password across all the Windows computers.
  2. Re-enter the domain administrator username and password ("Run As") for the WMI Query Daemon service:
  1. Navigate to Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services.
  2. Locate the Traverse WMI Query daemon, right click and select Stop.
  3. Then click on the Properties button, and click on Log On tab and select the This account option. Enter the domain administrator account using DOMAIN\username syntax. For a workgroup, you should use the .\username syntax. Specify the password and click OK.
  4. Restart the WMI Query daemon from the Traverse Service controller.
