mcuxpresso Windows 10 21H1 and Windows 11 cannot run program wmic createprocess error=2

Dear NXP,

There is a compatibility problem with the latest versions of Windows

on MCUXpresso if you debug then
"cannot run program wmic createprocess error=2"

I found the cause is because wmic.exe is missing

"Windows Management Instrumentation Command line (WMIC) tool: The WMIC tool is deprecated in Windows 10, version 21H1 and the 21H1 semi-annual channel release of Windows Server. This tool is superseded by Windows PowerShell for WMI. Note: This deprecation only applies to the command-line management tool. WMI itself is not affected."

Temporary Workaround:
Luckily I still have a "Windows.old" folder

I added this to my PATH
C:\Windows.old\WINDOWS\System32\wbem

Regards.

Lee.

I was able to make mine go away by adding the following to my path.
C:\Windows\System32\wbem
