This problem can usually be fixed by forcing an auto-recover of the default
information stored in the repository.

- open a command window (start > cmd.exe)
- type "net stop winmgmt"
- type "cd %windir%\system32\wbem"
- type "ren repository repository.old" (or alternatively delete it)

Then try your operation again. It may take a minute or so to complete while
WMI rebuilds the database.
