WinRM firewall exception will not work since one of the network connection types on this machine is set to Public. Change the network connection type to either Domain or Private and try again.

Solution:

1. Set all network to “private”;

To find the network adapter profiles, type Get-NetConnectionProfile and press enter.

Set-NetConnectionProfile -InterfaceIndex 6 -NetworkCategory Private
WinRM quickconfig

  2. Does not help, unfortunately.The only interface in the system is private, but the error still keeps blocking quickconfig.

    PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> get-netconnectionprofile
    Name : Síť 2
    InterfaceAlias : vEthernet (P)
    InterfaceIndex : 10
    NetworkCategory : Private
    IPv4Connectivity : Internet
    IPv6Connectivity : NoTraffic

    PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> winrm quickconfig
    WinRM service is already running on this machine.
