Server 2012 Core – Remote Server Manager Not Working

windows-command-promptwindows-server-2012

I am trying cmd –> MMC –> Server Manager and then connecting to my Server 2012 no GUI

but i keep getting the following error The WinRM client cannot process the request

I am unable to upload images right now

This is not related to other post "How to Remote Manage Windows Server 2012 in Server Manager?" because title and description of that post is quite different from what i am asking

On the server core (server without GUI you are trying to access remotely), do:
Configure-SMRemoting.exe –Enable " in PowerShell, and
winrm qc in an Admin CMD Prompt.

Note this is assuming that you are accessing Server Manager running RSAT on Windows 8 or using another Windows Server 2012 (non-core) server manager.
