recently on my machine, wmic is sort of borked. running "wmic path Win32_VideoController" results in

Code:
ERROR:
Description = Unspecified error

wmic is definitely installed on the machine. running just "wmic" takes me to the "wmic:root\cli" shell. the WMI service is also running.

if i run "Get-CimInstance -ClassName Win32_VideoController", i get the normal video card info for the output.

does anyone know why wmic would be acting finicky?
