Manage Windows 10 HyperV from another Windows 10 computer

---

I have 2 computers, a desktop and a laptop. Both computers run Windows 10 Pro. The desktop has HyperV installed with a Windows 7 VM attached to it. I would like to remote connect to the desktop HyperV from my laptop.

I have enabled remote management on both computers.
I've ran the winrm quickconfig on both computers.
I've ran the PS command of set-item wsman:\localhost\clients\trustedhosts - value "laptop" on the desktop.
I've created a user account "sysadmin" and added it to the HyperV Administrators group that I used on the connect as another user.
I've disabled the firewall on both computers.
Both computers are in the same Home Group and same Workgroup.

However, I still get the following error:
An error occurred while attempting to connect to server "desktop". Check that the Virtual Machine Management service is running and that you are authorized to connect to the server.
You do not have the required permission to complete this task. Contact the administrator of the authorization policy for the computer "desktop".

What am I missing to get my laptop to connect to my desktop's hyperv?

@Nathan-Guidry,

I might need some more details...not sure but check the following first.

On Desktop, navigate to System Properties and look for Remote Settings

Verify that "Remote Settings" is set to Allow remote settings to this computer.

On Laptop make sure that you can ping the Desktop

If so, try to make your Remote desktop connection again. Try IP address as the connection first...to remove Name Resolution from the issue list.

Make sure you're using the Desktop credentials to get access in.

Hi Ronnie,

I'm able to remote desktop to the desktop running HyperV using the name of the desktop. I just can't add the desktop to my laptop's hyperv manager.

I've tried using the hvremote.wsf cmdlet to try to get this to work, but it appears that Windows 10 is not supported for it.

@Nathan-Guidry ,

I'm not sure if this is possible either...

If it is...on the laptop, open hyper-v, then you can to right click on the Hyper-V Manager Node or whatever it's called at the top and see if you get connect to... then try the IP address of that desktop this should add the Hyper-V machine as a second node to the manager.
