At my jenkins installation (2.361.4) the WMI windows agents plugin appeared deprecated.

After disabling it, I was not able to start any jobs. So I enabled it again and started removing the marked implicitly dependent plugins I do not work with and disabled WMI windows agents again.

My finding: either extended emails recipient columns plugin or clone workspace SCM plugin (or both) must have a real dependency.

I guess it might be a good idea to:

• mark the culprit(s) with an explicit dependency
• mark the culprit(s) deprecated as well

Otherwise it will cause some trouble as soon as WMI windows agents plugin will be removed in the future.

JFTR: uninstallation of windows-slaves-plugin did not work. The warning and the plugin came back after each try.

Even using "the hard way" (deleting both the jip file and the plugin folder in the plugins folder of the installation) does not work. It's back after a restart.
