    Can't use WinRM - Access Denied?


    Hello Everyone

    I cannot get WinRM quickconfig to work on my Win7 Ultimate Machine in a workgroup environment (im trying to work with powershell remoting):


    • I am logged in as Administrator with a none blank password
    • I have run cmd.exe as administrator (right-click Run As Administrator)
    • Set Registry: [HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System\LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy] and set to 1
    • Set Sharing and Security Model for local accounts to: Classic in secpol.msc
    • Set everything to Allow in gpedit.msc for WinRM in Windows Components
    • Disabled UAC

    Im still getting:


    Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]
    Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

    C:\Users\Swatto>winrm quickconfig
    WinRM already is set up to receive requests on this machine.
    WSManFault
    Message = Access is denied.

    Error number: -2147024891 0x80070005
    Access is denied.


    Anyone have other suggestions please?


    Thanks for any help

    I see this post is aging and with no answer, but this may work: try setting a password on the Administrator account. That has solved a winRM error for me before.

    It also fills a wide open security gap . . .
