A. This error code can be produced if the Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) service has been disabled for any reason. Please verify that the service is running. If the WMI service is running, then this may be a problem between the Microsoft Windows Operating System settings and the InstallShield product that is used for installing and removing Nessus Windows. There are knowledge base articles from both Microsoft and InstallShield that both detail potential causes and the resolution of the issue.
