WMI Woes

[Gatt]

Finally got SMS 2003 to work (push out Office 2007) but now got another problem

 

WMI seems to have got corrupted on over 3/4 of the PC's and I need a way to repair it and repair SMS Client to the PCs..

 

I found this series of commands to repair WMI

cd /d %windir%\system32\wbem 
for %i in (*.dll) do RegSvr32 -s %i 
for %i in (*.exe) do %i /RegServer

but it doesn't like being run from a batch file

 

Is there an easier way to repair WMI & SMS Adv Client on startup?

What happens when you try to run those commands in a batch file ?

Is that not just because of the percent signs? Try the same script, but with double percents:

 

cd /d %windir%\system32\wbem 
for %%i in (*.dll) do RegSvr32 -s %%i 
for %%i in (*.exe) do %%i /RegServer
