However yeseterday windows update wanted to install some updates and one of which was Service Pack 2 which I let it install. Ever since then every 5 minutes I get this error message in a popup:
nmefwmi.exe stopped working and was closed
After doing some searching this is apparently a bug in Oracle 11g that is yet to be resolved by Oracle. I found hearing that strange since the problem only started occuring for me after a windows update.
I found this answer which explains how to fix the issue:
* nmefwimi.exe is Oracle Enterprise Manager process and it is not critical in the sense what when it stops working it will not affect the database.
* nmefwmi.exe process is associated with OracleDBConsoleorcl service.
* Go to Administrative Tools -> Services, stop the service and set the startup type to "Manual".
* When you need to use dbconsole, start the service manually, ignore the error, do what you have to do, and stop it again.
