    Follow https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/virtualization/hyper-v/manage/remotely-manage-hyper-v-hosts

    As per this article, "This lets you connect to the Hyper-V host when you're not running on the local computer as a user that's a member of either the Hyper-V Administrators group or the Administrators group on the Hyper-V host."

    Hi Manbi,

    To manage Hyper-V Server from a Windows 10 machine using Hyper-V Manager with a non-administrator account, you need to ensure that the non-administrator account has the necessary permissions on both the Hyper-V Server and the Windows 10 machine.

    1. On the Hyper-V Server, add the non-administrator account to the local "Hyper-V Administrators" group. This group provides the necessary permissions to manage Hyper-V.
    2. Open Server Manager on the Hyper-V Server.
    3. Go to "Local Server" > "Tools" > "Computer Management" > "Local Users and Groups" > "Groups."
    4. Double-click on "Hyper-V Administrators" group.
    5. Click "Add" and then add the non-administrator account to this group.
    6. Ensure that the non-administrator account has permissions for remote management on the Hyper-V Server.
    7. Open PowerShell as an administrator on the Hyper-V Server and run the following command to enable remote management:

    Enable-PSRemoting -Force

    Please refer to the following doc:

    Best Regards,
