Résolution
Open a PowerShell prompt as Administrator and run the following commands:
winrm set winrm/config/client/auth '@{Basic="true"}'
winrm set winrm/config/client '@{AllowUnencrypted="true"}'
If the following error occurs when changing the setting, then it would need to be modified via Group Policy:
“The config setting Basic cannot be changed because is controlled by policies. The policy would need to be set to ‘Not Configured’ or ‘Enabled’ in order to change the config setting.”
The policy can be found in GPMC
