Hi Folks.
I have a problem with event viewer. I have tried the usual google searches and suggestions including Registry edits and SFC scans but to no avail.
I am looking for inspiration before i do a reload of windows or even wait till the update comes. Thanks

To Fix MMC Could Not Create The Snap-in

Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MMC\SnapIns

[attachment=3585]

Look for FX:{b05566ad-fe9c-4363-be05-7a4cbb7cb510} and select Export. Save to desktop.


Once backup is done, you can now Delete FX:{b05566ad-fe9c-4363-be05-7a4cbb7cb510}


Restart and hopefully your problem is resolved

nope that didnt work.
I did read that windows will recreate that registry value and it sorts the problem but when I run regedit again the key is not there but I still get the error message on event viewer. I may try a system restore point from a few days ago but im not too sure when this stopped working as is it a while i checked the event log
Thanks

Is Microsoft .net Framework 3.5 installed?

Yes and running according to Windows features

Have you tried to add text below to environment variable?


;%SystemRoot%\System32\WBEM;



Do you have all these ticked and install?.

Net Framework as per your pic .
Environment variables are a bit beyond me I know how to access them but where do I insert the text and does it go under user or system variables?
Thanks Brian (if its You)

2. To access Environment Variables
3. In search type system
4. Open Advanced System Settings

In the Command Prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER:

If this don't work you can reinstall MMC Microsoft Management Console

Hi thanks for all your help. I have learnt something new and will check the various settings to check they comply. I have however installed the latest version of windows and this has sorted the problem.
