The WMI Repository, located at C:\Windows\System32\wbem\Repository, is a Windows database that holds definitions and meta information of WMI classes. There are also cases when it includes data about static classes, too. When this repository becomes damaged, then the WMI service will no longer work properly either because it depends on this repository.
Also known as "Windows Management Instrumentation", the WMI service can be found as "winmgmt". It runs at Windows startup automatically using the LocalSystem account. If this service cannot run due to the fact that the WMI repository is corrupt, this may lead to overall system stability issues.
In this case, it's better to fix the WMI service by repairing the damaged WMI repository. And this is where ResetWMI comes into play. Built as a standalone application available through the command-line tool, it's designed to reconstruct the original WMI repository, in order to make sure that everything is working properly again.
It's not necessary to go through a setup stage because there is no installation involved. You can keep it stored in your collection of portable software and fire it up whenever you are experiencing issues with the WMI repository.
The downloaded package includes two executable files for 32-bit (x86) and 64-bit (x64) operating systems, so make sure to use the one that corresponds to Windows architecture type. It's also a good idea to run command prompt with administrative privileges, just to make sure you won't run into permission-related errors.
ResetWMI is completely silent. After calling its process without using any other arguments, it proceeds with fixing the WMI repository right away, without showing any messages. In fact, it doesn't even tell you whether or not the task was successful. However, you can try manually starting the WMI service to test this.
Although it hasn't received updates for a pretty long time, our tests have indicated that ResetWMI still works well on newer Windows. It provides a simple and straightforward solution for fixing WMI repositories.
