I am trying to deploy a script that fixes the issue between KB3025417 and the SCEP reporting (Issue).  The command that I am running is the one found in the linked blog post, inserted into a batch file.

Register-CimProvider.exe -ProviderName ProtectionManagement -Namespace root\microsoft\ProtectionManagement -Path "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Security Client\ProtectionMgmt.dll" -Impersonation True -HostingModel LocalServiceHost -SupportWQL -ForceUpdate

I have manually(As Administrator) ran the batch file on several computers, to test.  On half the computers I get the following response:

On the other half, it just runs, some have been running for at least 30 minutes, with no response.  Is anyone else getting similar responses when running the command?

Hi,

It said, Successfully registered the provider.

If this resovled the issue, just ignore it.

A bit off topic, I know. But before you start testing your batch script with ConfigMgr, do note that packages are being run with a 32bit launcher. That won't work with the commandline provided by the ConfigMgr team.

Took me a while to realise. You either have to use the application model, or trick the 64bit file system redirection to use cmd.exe from %SystemRoot%\Sysnative\ instead.

Hope that helps someone.

%SystemRoot%\SysNative\cmd.exe /c "%~dp0ReportingFix.bat"

%SystemRoot%\System32\cmd.exe /c "%~dp0ReportingFix.bat"

For 32bit CMD, use %systemroot%\SysWow64 then check in Task Manager under Process for *32 to indicate the process is 32-bit.
