Launch PowerShell remote PSSession

[imccarthy]

Hi Folks,

I am trying to launch the below command from the basic actions menu for an asset but the PowerShell window displays and then closes with no output

I have the command working from a normal PowerShell window on the Lansweeper server.

The two commands I have tried are below:
powershell.exe Enter-PSSession -ComputerName {computer}
powershell.exe set-executionpolicy bypass Enter-PSSession -ComputerName {computer}

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

I got it to work. Try adding the -noexit parameter.

powershell.exe -noexit Enter-PSSession -ComputerName {smartname}

For anyone else, here is the how to I followed for enabling remote powershell sessions if you don't already have it setup.

remote powershell enable

remote powershell enable

Thanks for that Steve, it worked perfectly.

Its not exactly what you want but it does work via psexec.

{actionpath}psexec.exe /accepteula \\{smartname} powershell.exe

I cannot get it to work the same way you were trying it either.
