My computer was becoming unresponsive occasionally about once a day recently, forcing me to initiate a hard restart using the reset button on the computer case. I began using miniToolbox immediately after each time, and every time a WMI error showed up:
a. sc config winmgmt start= disabled
b. net stop winmgmt
2. Run the following commands.
a. Winmgmt /salvagerepository %windir%System32wbem
b. Winmgmt /resetrepository %windir%System32wbem
3. Re-enable the WMI service and then reboot the server to see how it goes.
a. sc config winmgmt start= auto
