STATUS_WMI_NOT_SUPPORTED
The WMI block does not support this operation
A provider can expose queryable data, writable data, events, and executable methods in different combinations. This status means the requested WMI operation is not implemented for the selected block or method. It should be separated from an unrecognized GUID, which points to registration or selection rather than operation capability.
Record the minor function and GUID, then compare them with the provider contract. For method execution, preserve the method ID and input size. For set or event operations, verify that the provider registered and implemented the corresponding request path.
What to inspect
- Capture the GUID, method or item ID, and WMI minor function.
- Check the provider documentation and MOF for the supported operation set.
- Choose a documented alternative API rather than retrying the same unsupported request.
