Answer 1

Hello there,

This might be due to the WMI repository being corrupted, in that case, try the below steps.

Disable and stop the WMI service

sc config winmgmt start= disabled

net stop winmgmt

Run the following commands

Winmgmt /salvagerepository %windir%\System32\wbem

Winmgmt /resetrepository %windir%\System32\wbem

Re-enable the WMI service and reboot

sc config winmgmt start= auto

Verify that the version of Windows Server you are using (2023 DevKit ARM64) supports the Get-NetNat command. Sometimes, certain features or commands may not be available on specific editions or configurations of Windows Server.

Hope this resolves your Query !!
