ConfigMgr 2012 SP1 PowerShell Not Supported in 64-bit Version

Asked By ryan carr 70 points N/A Posted on - 12/13/2013

I'm trying to launch the 32-bit PowerShell and open the remote session under the ConfigMgr server. However, when I tried to start the module, I end up getting an error.

Error

PowerShell is not supported in 64-bit version. Run PowerShell in x86 version and import the module again.

I am confused since I am attempting to launch the 32-bit PowerShell and the error stated that it is not supported with 64-bit version. I am launching the PowerShell locally. Please tell me how to fix this issue. Thank you.

ConfigMgr 2012 SP1 PowerShell Not Supported in 64-bit Version

The reason why you are still receiving this error is because the remote PowerShell session that you are starting under the server will still be launched to its default native architecture which is the 64-bit. So you need to identify the architecture through the -ConfigurationName parameter:

Enter-PSSession -ComputerName <sccmserver> -ConfigurationName Microsoft.PowerShell32

Once done, you will have full access to the Configuration Manager PowerShell cmdlets remotely. And you don't need to open it on local machine.
