I am unable to get Windows 10 devices to scan. What started off as an intermittent issue with Win10 devices is affecting all new deployments now.
It looks like it is scanning, but then it suddenly ends without any error/notification. This has been going on since I started deploying windows 10 devices. Thanks for your help.
Cheers,
David T.

BTW, I have already used the Unknown Assistant tool, and this command: netsh advfirewall firewall set rule group=“windows management instrumentation (wmi)” new enable=yes

You’ve tried running the “rescan device” and using the Troubleshooting option?
The device never shows up in the inventory. Several minutes into the scan, the scan just ends. It sees the device, it accepts the credentials, but the scan just stops. Happens with all Wndows 10 Pro laptops.

Was the unkown tool reporting all green while the device was on wifi? Are you able to successfully ping the device from the Spiceworks server while it is on wifi?
It wasn’t showing green before I ran the tool, but it was afterwards. The device shows up when I start the scan, both IP and hostname are displayed, but it fails to complete the scan, and never shows up in my inventory, so I’m unable to ping from within Spiceworks. I can ping it from the SW machine using cmd prompt.

Can you go to this article: https://community.spiceworks.com/support/inventory/troubleshooting/windows-scanning-issues and run the WMI test? Let me know what the results are when you run the WMI command.
Make sure that you are doing this from the server that Spiceworks is installed on, and make sure the target Windows 10 machine is on WIFI.

Are your devices on wireless setup to Public network on the adapter? If so, change it to private so the settings can take place for the firewall.

Yes, the WMI command run from Spiceworks server to wifi connected W10 laptop was successful.
The network connection is set to Domain. If I disable the FW for Domain, it scans successfully. Any clue which port I need to open outside the usual ones that the WMI command and unknown assistant tool aren’t opening? I obviously don’t want to leave the FW off.

Verified that those ports are open, but it still fails to scan.
Those ports are open, but still fails to complete scan.

Yes, I’m able to retrieve the serial number as described.
I’m still having this issue with Windows 10 devices. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I did the steps in link: WMI Error
and it finally scanned but with little info (attached). I tried to rescan with troubleshooting but no change.
It is showing port 135 as open. I’ve used the unknown assistant tool, manually gone through and verified ports are open, but no success. I’m on the current version of SW.

Any other firewalls other than the default windows one?

No, and I’ve even disabled the Windows firewall on the device I’m testing with now to no avail.
