Failed to connect to ADMIN$

 Scenario: Would like to add workgroup computer & deploy Veeam Agent

Error: RPC Error

if I type \\localhost\ADMIN$ into the run box, then the folder does open.

Issue: Due to remote UAC restriction

[Workaround]

Use regedit

Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL-MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System

Create a new DWORD (32 Bit) with the name "LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy"

Set to 1

Restart the computer to apply the changes
