Cannot obtain SQL Server service information - WMI issue?

5

I right click an SQL server database MyDB in SSMS and select "start powershell". However, I got the following error. And it's quite slow?

WARNING: Could not obtain SQL Server Service information. An attempt to connect to WMI on 'MyServer' failed with the following error: Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))
