I have been getting this message anytime I try to look at system services, like system restore or system information. The message I receive when I go through the System tools program is "Can't Collect Information" Cannot access the Windows Management Instrumentation software. Windows Management files may be moved or missing. Any suggestions would be appreciated
Thanks, Jeff
