Posted April 14, 20223 yr Hi Folks, Â I'm new to Pulsewau scripting, please bear with me. I've tried to run the following PowerShell command, but it doesnt seem to run. Rename-Computer -NewName "Computer123" -DomainCredential MyDomain\Administrator -Restart Any advice on what I should do, to rename a computer?
April 15, 20223 yr Administrators Hi @AMC, Based on the documentation, the DomainCredential parameter says: Quote If you type a user name, this cmdlet prompts you for a password. We run PowerShell in a non-interactive mode, this prevents inputs from being triggered. You can provide a PSCredential object instead of the username and that should do the trick. $password = "ThisIsAPlaintextPassword" | ConvertTo-SecureString -asPlainText -Force $username = "contoso\Administrator" [PSCredential] $credential = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential($username, $password) Rename-Computer -NewName "NewComputerName" -DomainCredential $credential -Restart -Paul
