STATUS_WMI_ITEMID_NOT_FOUND

The WMI data-item ID is not valid for this block

WMI can change an entire instance or address an individual item within a data block. In the latter case the request carries a data-item identifier. This status means the provider recognized the data block and request shape but did not recognize that item ID for the selected GUID.

The useful comparison is against the provider's MOF-derived layout and implementation of IRP_MN_CHANGE_SINGLE_ITEM. An ID from another version of the provider or another block is not interchangeable merely because the payload type appears compatible.

What to inspect

  • Record the GUID, instance, item ID, and WMI minor function.
  • Verify the item ID against the exact provider/MOF version installed on the machine.
  • Do not convert the request to a raw buffer write; use the operation the provider documents.
