When I run

PS C:\> Repair-Volume -DriveLetter C -Scan

in Powershell:

PSVersion 5.1.19041.1320
PSEdition Desktop

I get this error:

Repair-Volume : Invalid property
At line:1 char:1

  • Repair-Volume -DriveLetter C -Scan
  • ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  • CategoryInfo : MetadataError: (MSFT_Volume:ROOT/Microsoft/...age/MSFT_Volume) [Repair-
    Volume], CimException
  • FullyQualifiedErrorId : HRESULT 0x80041031,Repair-Volume

I ran sfc /scannow and found no issues.

BTW, Get-Volume throws a similar error;

Thank you.

    Running this as a .bat:
    Will reboot and check WMI

    @Echo off
    sc config winmgmt start= disabled
    net stop winmgmt /y
    %systemdrive%
    cd %windir%\system32\wbem
    for /f %%s in ('dir /b *.dll') do regsvr32 /s %%s
    wmiprvse /regserver
    winmgmt /regserver
    sc config winmgmt start= auto
    net start winmgmt
    for /f %%s in ('dir /s /b *.mof *.mfl') do mofcomp %%s

    Does this work? Get-WMIObject Win32_Volume

    How about some other WMI class? Something like $x = Get-WMIObject Win32_GroupUser
