Hi there,
If you get the ‘Failed to connect to NFS WMI provider’ error, it can be due to the removal of the WMI provider due to the installation of SQL Server or the permissions of a key in the Windows Registry.
In some scenarios, the issue occurs if only the administrator account has full permissions over a Windows Registry key and the Network Service account is restricted.
-Press Windows Key + R to open Run.
-Type in ‘services.msc’ and press Enter.
-Search for the Windows Management Instrumentation service.
-Right-click on it and select Restart and then restart the PC and see if this helps.
