Get-CimInstance : Invalid namespace while installing Sitecore 9.1

Question

While running .\XP0-SingleDeveloper.ps1 at task 39 I am getting the error below:

[-------------------------- XConnectXP0_RemoveServices [1] : RemoveService -------------------------------------------] Install-SitecoreConfiguration : Invalid namespace At C:\ResourceFiles\XP0-SingleDeveloper.ps1:74 char:1 + Install-SitecoreConfiguration @singleDeveloperParams *>&1 | Tee-Objec ... + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [Write-Error], WriteErrorException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.WriteErrorException,Install-SitecoreConfiguration

[TIME] 00:00:54 Get-CimInstance : Invalid namespace At C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\SitecoreInstallFramework\2.0.0\Public\Tasks\Invoke-RemoveServiceTask.ps1:10 char:17 + ... $instance = Get-CimInstance -Class win32_service -Filter "Name = '$Na ... + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : MetadataError: (:) [Get-CimInstance], CimException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : HRESULT 0x8004100e,Microsoft.Management.Infrastructure.CimCmdlets.GetCimInstanceCommand

I have Solr 7.2.1 up and running as a windows service. Don't understand what's causing this issue. Anyone had this before?

Update: This is failing while running the below Json.

"RemoveServices": {
            "Description": "Removes the current service.",
            "Type": "RemoveService",
            "Params": [
                { "Name": "[variable('Services.IndexWorker.Name')]" },
                { "Name": "[variable('Services.MarketingAutomationEngine.Name')]" },
                { "Name": "[variable('Services.ProcessingEngine.Name')]" }
            ]
        },

This suggests that you are missing the win32_service class in WMI for some reason. You should be able to repeat the error by running: Get-CimInstance -Class Win32_Service

Seems to be good instructions on how to check and rebuild your WMI classes if needed.
