windows MeshAgent does not work

[akramStrom]

hello ! so i'm a new user. I install the Meshcentral server succefully but when i tried to install the agent, when i clicked on the binary .exe file it opened the terminal for 0.5 second or so and disappeared and i waited for so long for anything to happen but nothing happened i even refreshed the server page 20 times and the machine didn't show up (i wanted to remote access to the same machine the meshcentral server is installed on) so i tried different installers cuz i thought that was the problem from interactive and background to only interactive and only background nothing worked same isssue arises so i installed another meshAgent for linux this time to my linux virtual machine and it worked !!!! . At this point, i was so confused so i thought maybe the problem is lookback resolving issue so i installed the server this time on the linux machine and tried all the meshcentral agent windows installers BUT it was the same issue. I looked even more into this and i thought it was the antivirus problem or the firewall so i disabled both of my antiviruses and the firewall, BUT as you are guessing the same issue persists. So , I'm truly convinced now that there is a problem with the meshagent windows installer. if you could fix this issue that would be awesome, and thank you so much for you're work. (i'm on windows 11 24H2).

Windows 11 24H2 removed the wmic while our old binary file required!
the new test agent binarys remove wmic support so they work
but the quickest fix is to install the WMIC add on in windows
OR
use the commandline to install it meshagent64-mygroup.exe -fullinstall
