Hi,Anvitha Boyapati (V)
The issue is largely related to permission issues.
Is your operating environment a personal computer or within a domain?
Make sure that SSCM has been run with administrative privileges and ensure that the group policy for domain users is set to modify network configurations.
Some anti-malware software with high privileges may also block your operations, remember to disable them.
Lastly, if the above checks are fine, you can try to repair the WMI Provider for SQL Server.
For instance, 2022 version:
Go CMD:
cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\160\Shared
Then:
mofcomp "sqlmgmprovider.mof"
For SQL Server 2019 and earlier versions:
mofcomp "sqlmgmproviderxpsp2up.mof"
Different versions refer to this.
