Hi Brice Nevitt,
To understand the situation a little better, I would need you to provide me with the following information.
- What version of Wazuh are you using? I have carried out tests with the last published version of Wazuh and I was able to connect the WS 2022 agent to the manager without problems.

- Can you see any errors in the logs? You can check with this command:
Into Wazuh manager:
cat /var/ossec/logs/ossec.log | grep -i -E "(error|warning)
Into Wazuh WS agent:
Open the file placed in: C:\Program Files (x86)\ossec-agent\ossec.log

- Did you check if the manager is active?
systemctl status wazuh-manager

- Another thing you can check is that the necessary ports on the manager are open and reachable. The default ports for agent communication and enrollment via agent configuration are 1514/TCP and 1515/TCP.

Hello Brice Nevitt,
I have tried to reproduce the error you mention without success.
From what I could investigate, it may be a configuration problem in your WS 2022 where the VBScript engine is not registered or points to the wrong path.
Try running the following command in a cmd as administrator:
regsvr32 vbscript.dll

Try the installation again and verify that the 2738 error does not appear again.

Another alternative is to check the default path to the VBScript engine. For this, you will need administrator access in WS 2022 and open the regedit console.
Then go to the following path:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}\InprocServer32

Validate that the default contains the following in data:
C:\Windows\System32\vbscript.dll

Let me know if this was helpful.
