Solution

Refer to Microsoft's guide to running WMIDiag script:
 
https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/how-to-run-wmidiag-script-ie-wmidiagvbs-in-the/12423fdc-fd5b-e011-8dfc-68b599b31bf5


 
Extract and run WMIDiag.vbs, it will create an error log.
 
Error 0x8004100F - (WBEM_E_INVALID_OBJECT) Specified instance is not valid
 
Note: WMIDiag.vbs is a VBScript script designed to help you ascertain the current state of the WMI service on a computer. The download package includes the utility itself, a ReadMe file that discusses how the tool works (and how to best use it), and sample spreadsheets that provide information about the default WMI configuration on various versions of the Microsoft Windows operating system.
 
The tool fixes most permissions errors and if some configuration issue, it will create a text file and tells how to fix it.
