    I have a test OU where we have a GPO to enable PowerShell remoting. I am testing a PowerShell script that runs against a list of computers that are in the test OU. The script runs successfully against some computers but not others.

    • Windows 7 environment.
    • Windows Firewall is disabled throughout the domain.
    • WinRM service starts automatically and is running on the computers.
    • Logged in as an administrator, and running Powershell as Administrator

    Do I need to add my administrator account to the local remote users group on the target computers?

    What else should I try to get Powershell remoting to work?

    Thank you!

    Since we have no access to your network and cannot see your screen, we can only surmise that something is not set up correctly on those computers.

    Please compare results of "winrm e winrm/config/listener" from both working and non-working computers. 

    i assume there is not network firewall involved and all computers are in same domain. 

    you can also try adding the non-working computer to trusted hosts and give it a try :

    set-item WSMan:\localhost\Client\TrustedHosts -Value $fqdn -Force
