The wmi-lite gem will be installed automatically when you install chef on 
windows. Just changing the dependency in the windows cookbook is unlikely to 
work without further changes to update other code to use wmi-lite and it’s 
possible that wmi-lite is missing some functionality used by the cookbook. 
I’ve reached out to my colleagues who are more familiar with the windows 
cookbook to help answer your question, but for now if you install the 
`ruby-wmi` gem it should work around the problem for the time being.
