cannot connect to Exchange Management Shell
- Jan 25, 2024Looks like the issue is regarding 3rd party AV, although we are not able to figure out the exclusions which need to be set. We have the Microsoft recommendations set ( and more and still does not work properly), only if we remove the AV completely.
Hi MateKovacs,
the error you're having indicates that the account used to connect to the Exchange Server lacks Remote PowerShell privileges.
This could be the reason for the inability to access the Exchange Management Shell (EMS) and the Exchange Control Panel (ECP).
You can try this to resolve this issue:
Activate Remote PowerShell for your account:
Request your Exchange Administrator to execute the 'Set-User -RemotePowerShellEnabled' command to enable Remote PowerShell for your account.
