I wanted to Enable-PSRemoting but stuck with error with Set-WSManQuickConfig command.

After typing Set-WSManQuickConfig in PS Console I get the following error:

Ensure you're running the shell as Admin, and try Enable-PSRemoting.

Hi and thanks for answering,

I'm running powershell as administrator and when I type Enable-PSRemoting I get error like before:

WinRM Quick Configuration
Running command "Set-WSManQuickConfig" to enable this machine for remote management through Wi
This includes:
1. Starting or restarting (if already started) the WinRM service
2. Setting the WinRM service type to auto start
3. Creating a listener to accept requests on any IP address
4. Enabling firewall exception for WS-Management traffic (for http only).

Do you want to continue?

Maybe I'm missing some component on system? I don't know how can I verify this further.
