hey all, just wondering if anyone has any advice. When i run WWP a message pops up saying it has stopped working, and then leaving me no option but to press the close programme option. Is this common? and are there any ways of making it work?
Any help would be great, thanks.
Joe

Saw this somewhere dont remember who to give credit too =/
NOTE:
This makes your system more vulnerable but it's the only way to get these kinds of errors to stop. It's your choice whether you want to do this or not.
"BEFORE you do this, make sure this is actually the problem. One easy way to tell is by trying to access the "Network and Sharing Center" or by looking at the network icon in your taskbar. If you cant get into the network center or if the network icon has a red X and youre sure you are connected to something, then you have a WMI problem."

For users with Windows Vista Ultimate or Business editions:

>>Right click "Computer"

>>Double click "Users and Groups"
>>Click "Groups"
>>Right click "Administrators"
>>Click "Add to group..."
>>Click "Add"
>>Click "Advanced"
>>Click "Find Now"
>>Double click "Local Service"

For users with the Home editions of Vista:
(Credit goes to SWAndersen)
Go to the command prompt (hit run and type in cmd.exe)
and type this in:
net localgroup Administrators /add Local Service
(optional)
then you can type this in:
net localgroup Administrators
and if LOCAL NT AUTHORITY/SERVICE is listed, then it worked. Now go reboot.
NOTE: THE REBOOT IS NECESSARY
OTHERWISE EVERYTHING YOU'VE DONE WILL GO TO WASTE
