I need to do some registry change where I need to give admin permission to a key. I need to provide permission to the key gpsvc
(in HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\
).
I have written a script for this, but somehow the permission is not getting changed nor the path is getting set. If I execute the script line by line it works, but when I try to execute it as a script it fails.
$Cred = Get-Credential Global\admin
Invoke-WmiMethod -Path "Win32_Service.Name='RemoteRegistry'" -Name StartService -ComputerName D8CB8A200738
Enter-PSSession D8CB8A200738 -Credential $Cred
