Step-by-Step Guide to Fix WinRM and Install .NET Framework

Follow these steps to configure WinRM and resolve the .NET Framework installation issue:

Step 1: Open Command Prompt as Administrator

  1. Press Windows + X and select Command Prompt (Admin) or Windows PowerShell (Admin) from the menu.

  2. If prompted by User Account Control (UAC), click Yes to proceed.

Step 2: Check the Current WinRM Configuration

  1. In the Command Prompt window, type the following command and press Enter:

    Copy

    winrm get winrm/config
    
  2. This command will display the current configuration of WinRM. Look for any errors or misconfigurations in the output.

Step 3: Configure WinRM (Recommended)

If the output indicates that WinRM isn’t configured properly, you can quickly configure it by running the following command:

Copy

winrm quickconfig
  • This command will set up WinRM with default settings, including enabling the WinRM service and creating a firewall exception.

  • Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the configuration.

Step 4: Verify WinRM is Running

  1. After configuring WinRM, verify that it’s running by executing the following command:

    Copy

    winrm enumerate winrm/config/listener
    
  2. This command should return details about the WinRM listener. If it doesn’t, there may still be an issue with the configuration.

Step 5: Retry the .NET Framework Installation

  1. Once WinRM is configured correctly, retry installing the .NET Framework.

  2. The installation should now proceed without any issues related to WinRM.
