Hello, We are facing a very serious problem since upgrade to version 18.4.45.1898 x64. Every day, more and more WMI sensors on different remote probes stop working with "Connection could not be established (code: PE015)" or "Cannot access folder: The folder doesn't exist (code: PE032)" errors. Please advise, Yaron

Yaron,
It sounds like you might have too much WMI going on at the same time. If you go to Setup -> Status -> PRTG Status, look for the Database Objects section and tell me how many Requests/Second you have.
Also, can you copy and past the section covering Sensors by Type and Sensors by Scanning Interval?
Thanks!
