Starting the service isn't the only thing that needs to be done. There needs to be a configured winrm listener (winrm enumerate winrm/config/listener) for that port.

Typically you configure WinRM by doing winrm quickconfig or if you want WinRM + the PSRemoting side use Enable-PSRemoting.

In any case, WinRM is something external to PowerShell so this isn't the right repo to ask about it.

Thank you for your advice.
I use default config for winrm, so service should run on port 9585 and 5986.
And can you give some repo more suitable ?

check firewall on win2012：
Enable-PSRemoting -SkipNetworkProfileCheck -Force
Set-NetFirewallRule -Name "WINRM-HTTP-In-TCP-NoScope" -RemoteAddress Any
Set-NetFirewallRule -Name "WINRM-HTTP-In-TCP" -RemoteAddress Any

trust server on client pc：
Set-Item WSMan:\localhost\Client\TrustedHosts -Value '*'

then Restart-Service WinRM

I don't think it is problem from server. Because, I can run command on server, but port isn't listening on client.

Thank you for your advice, I will try it and response.

Hi, I tried enable inbound FW but nothing changes. I disabled inbound FW on uat, but winRM can workUntitled

Port 5985 can listen on client when I run: presec $computername -h -d powershell.exe -Command "Set-Service -Name WinRM -StartupType Automatic; Start-Service -Name WinRM" But in live enviroment, port 5985 can't listenning on client.
