CoInitializeEx failed

Hi

We've been using the software for our AIR app, and it's been working well.

One of our users is reporting the following error when he tries to activate:

"CoInitializeEx failed: Re-enable Windows Management Instrumentatio" (it gets cut off there in our app)

Any ideas how to remedy this?

Thanks

My guess is that WMI couldn't be connected to using the "root\cmv2" namespace. You can see what I mean if you go to your start menu and type "wbemtest" and press enter. Then press the "Connect..." button, a window will popup and click the "Connect" button without changing any of the field. On a well configured computer that dialog will disappear and you'll be properly connected. On a misconfigured computer an error will show.

If an error was shown (or even if it wasn't shown) this WMI Diagnosis Utility will help you diagnose the problem.

Thanks very much!

I figured it was something with his system... I'll let him know.
