Getting Data In

I modified my wmi.conf and broke splunk

I now get "Failed to fetch data: In handler 'win-wmi-enum-eventlogs': Unable to get wmi classes from host '**'. This host may not be reachable or WMI may be misconfigured."

I restored the original .conf file and restarted all services but still get this error.

Is there a way to repair this?
