Enable Powershell remoting and access denied

To check if Powershell Remoting is turned on:


Enter-PSSession -ComputerName localhost

If all goes well the output is shown like this:


[PS] C:\Windows\system32>Enter-PSSession -ComputerName localhost
[localhost]: PS C:\Users\Username\Documents>

In some cases you get an error stating that "Access denied", but doenst really give enough info on why access is denied.
From an elevated command prompt run the following command:


reg add HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f

After that, re-launch the Powershell prompt as admin and re-run Enable-PSSRemoting
