MMC - Could not create the Snap-in

Having Windows 10 Version 1703 64-based on a HP Laptop.

Tried to install gpedit.msc, but continuously have error message

'MMC could not create the snap-in'

with 'CLSID: {8FCOB734-A0E1-11D1-A7D3-0000F87571E3}'

Have tried trolling Google with all suggestions

1) sfc /scannow - with no issues found

2) Google Search

3) https://blog.multiplay.co.uk/2013/1...reate-snap-in-for-group-policy-object-editor/

4) http://computerstepbystep.com/group_policy_windows_xp.html

5) How To Fix MMC Could Not Create The Snap-in

Where one suggests to delete the 'CLSID: {8FCOB734-A0E1-11D1-A7D3-0000F87571E3}' in the registry to create a new clsid on reboot/restart, I cannot delete it as it returns as an error.

Have installed the gpedit.msc on my Tablet with no issues with same gpedit download.

Any clues

 

Windows 2008 R2 SP1 Server Manager not opening. Error: MMC could not create the snap in. Also other .NET issues.

I have a Windows 2008 R2 SP1 server fully patched which has recently been unable to open Server Manager. It errors with the message MMC could not create the snap-in. CLSID:FX:{18ea3f92-d6aa-41d9-a205-2023400c8fbb}. I have tried a number of steps to resolve
including uninstalling .NET Framework 4.5.2. and then reinstalling. I have also overwrititen the machine.config file in c:\windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\config with a file from a working server.

Additionally, the server hosts a number of applications and those dependent of .NET Framework are having problems. Notably, the SQL Server Agent service of the main SQL instance is not starting.

Can someone please offer any advice on how to resolve this problem

 

MMC detects error in a snap-in

Good morning,

It seems that some of you have fixed the "MMC has detected an error in a snap-in" by using the link shared by catspyjamas. I would like to give this fix a shot too but I want to make sure I really understand the proper steps.

It is my understanding that I go to C Drive > Microsoft > Event Viewer > Views. Right now in the 'Views' folder I have four entries. First is a folder called 'ApplicationViewsRootNode' which is empty. Then I have three of the XML view documents: View 0, View 1 and View 2.

I intend to copy the three views listed into a folder I will make and call it 'Event Viewer MMC fix' before I delete the same three views in the original folder.

Now for the heart of my question: Do I copy the 'ApplicationViewsRootNode' folder currently listed in the 'Views' folder and move it into my new folder with the copied three XML views and then delete it in the original folder like I did the three XML views or keep my hands off of it?

Sorry for such a detailed question but I don't want to screw up my computer.

Thanks and regards,
