Make sure on Vista that you right-click and select Run As Administrator. If that doesn't work, can you provide more details on what is happening? It's working fine on several Vista machines here.

Hey,right clicking the icon gives you the customize options not the option to run as administrator, but I've also tried running as admin which also fails.I've debugged and get the err System.IO.FileNotFoundException occurred in WMIExplorer.exe [2460]System.IO.FileNotFoundException was unhandledMessage: The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)Cheers

The WMI Explorer is a 32 bit application. Do you have the .NET Frameworks for 32 bit installed? If so, what version(s)?

Install the .NET 2.0 framework, the 32bit version to be exact.

"This Product is not supported on a 64bit operating system. Setup will now exit" , guess that means it wont work
