Error: 'You have attempted to login with no valid computer ID. This can be due to WMI corruption.'

You can run the following to repair your WMI database.

1. Open up a elevated (admin) command prompt.

2. Disable and stop the WMI service with the following two commands

    sc config winmgmt start= disabled
    net stop winmgmt

3. Run the following commands to repair the database:

    Winmgmt /salvagerepository %windir%\System32\wbem
    Winmgmt /resetrepository %windir%\System32\wbem

4. Re-enable the WMI service and then reboot the server (!!IMPORTANT TO REBOOT!!) and try to login.

    sc config winmgmt start= auto

This error can still occur if you are running a virtual machine that does not have any IDs associated to hardware, and cannot be solved through normal means. You REQUIRE an ID to login!
