Hi Gil-Levy,

Please try to add WSS_WPG group full control to those registry keys.
Here is a similar case for reference:

Hi Gil-Levy,

When did the issue start to occur?
Have you made any modifications to the machine before?

First of all, please open an administrator command line and run "sfc /scannow" or "dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth" to check the health of sytem files.

Hi.. thanks for the assistance.

I didn't make any changes to the system.

1. The first link doesn't help a lot because the troubleshooting guide says 

"At the command prompt, type lodctr:\ini file>, where <ini file> is the .ini file for the library that you want to reload."

But as you can see the error is about wmiaprpl.dll so I don't know how to fix this.. This is not .ini file

SFC/ Scannow is fine/

I ran dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth   but I didn't see anything unusual. What should I expect?

Hi Gil-Levy,

Just open an administrator command line and run "lodctr C:\WINDOWS\system32\wbem\wmiaprpl.dll". And the same for others.
In addition, please check the permissions` issue. Compare it with a good one.

As for the dism, it indicates the system files are healthy if it could run successfully.

Since I cannot post screenshots, I'll describe what I see in security tab for this wmiaprpl.dll file

Group or user names:

ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES - Read & Execute + Read

SYSTEM - Read & Execute + Read

Administrators (GIL-PC\Administrators) - Read & Execute + Read

Users (Gil-PC\Users) - Read & Execute + Read

TrustedInstaller - Full Control + Modifiy + Read & Execute + Read + Write

Is that good?

Hi Gil-Levy,

 Have you tried to run "lodctr C:\WINDOWS\system32\wbem\wmiaprpl.dll"?

As for the permissions, there should be a lot registry keys under that path. Compare it with a good one.
According to your reply, it seems that the "Creator Owner" is missing. Please add it manually and assign with full control permissions.

Yes I ran the command and I don't get any message after running it in CMD Admin mode.

I just run it and that's it.

As for the Permissions. I don't know what constitutes a good one to compare with but when I looked at other DLL files under C:\Windows\System32\wbem, they all have the same permission settings as the one I described.

What else can I do?

Hi Gil-Levy,

"but when I looked at other DLL files under C:\Windows\System32\wbem"
No, we should check the registry keys` permissions, not the file.
Run "regedit" to open registry key editor, navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services
Look for the three service "wmiaprpl", "bits", ".NETFramework". Then right click the "Performance" registry key. Check the permissions.

Ok I found the WmiApRpl in registry but I'm still not sure what is a good setting even if I compare to others.

Some maybe different.

I have:

CREATOR OWNER - Special permissions

SYSTEM - Full Control + Read

Administrators (GIL-PC\Administrators) - Full Control  + Read

Users (Gil-PC\Users) -  Read

That is it.

Should I change or add more?
