On a Windows Vista-based computer, an application that uses the EnableStatic method of the Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration class may not always set a static IP address for a network adapter

Consider the following scenario:

  • You are running a Windows Vista-based computer.
  • You use an application to programmatically set a static IP address for a network adapter.
  • This application uses the EnableStatic method of the Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration class.
    In this scenario, the operation may regularly fail.

Note: For example, you can use some virtual private networking (VPN) tools to programmatically set a static IP address for a network adapter.

There is a download that resolves this issue. See Hotfixes for details.
