Thanks for the response!
I have tried the following Powershell options:
set-ItemProperty -Path 'HKLM:System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal
Server'-name "fDenyTSConnections" -Value 0
set-ItemProperty -Path
'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE:System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server' -name
"fDenyTSConnections" -Value 0
set-ItemProperty -Path
'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server' -name
"fDenyTSConnections" -Value 0
But none of them work. Got the following error with the option you
suggested.

I have no doubt if I used the win_regedit it would work. But Im trying to
figure out why Ansible is not able to run a simple Powershell script from a
playbook?
Why am I able to run that script successfully from the machine, but it
fails when Ansible ties to execute it from a playbook.
This is the part of the error that concerns me:
<S S=\"Error\">set-ItemProperty : Cannot find path
'C:\\Users\\Administrator\\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\_x000D__x000A_</S>
Why is Ansible trying to find the path in C:\\ when this is a registry
script?
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Cheers
Mark
