Remote Hyper-V Manager Woes
-
It can be done but requires anonymous access to be enabled on the Hyper-V server (HVRemote is the step-by-step).
We don't do that for obvious reasons.
PowerShell is the best way to manage the server.
Enter-PSSession -ComputerName R510-HyperV -Credential R510-HyperV\Administrator -

I assume you don't want the Hyper-V server connected to the domain for some reason.
There is a guide here by Timothy Gruber which appears to do what you want.
It's just a test box, and honestly, I like to get servers built as far as I can before we deliver them. So joining the domain is something I would prefer to do at a later time; once the server has been delivered on site.
We don't join standalone Hyper-V hosts to any guest domain. That's just asking for trouble on so many fronts.

Always an option to make a dedicated domain for Hyper-V, too. Not sure if I'd ever want that. But it works.

We've been deploying two for a while now in high exposure settings or high risk settings.
For a standalone Hyper-V server though that's a 12lb sledge for a 3" spike. Just a tad.
If running in a standard user session then right click Hyper-V manager and Run As Admin and use the Hyper-V's local administrator for credentials. That may work though I can't remember if it does since we manage everything via local console (RDP) or PowerShell Remote.

Much like RDS.

Yup. That's why PowerShell Remoting is da bomb!

Well - apparently Hyper-V 2019 has had an issue where RDS doesn't work.
MS finally after 4 months released a patch

That's some serious fail right there.

Hyper-V Server 2019 is still not available. There's more to this than meets the eye me thinks.

Ug - the evla center is still pointing to the blog about it having issues. Though that hasn't been updated since Jan 17.
-
Installing March patch to see what happens.

Yeah, it seems that the Eval Center is just out of date and no longer authoritative with the latest updates.

I'm curious where @JasGot got the link from? I assume it's valid MS file since it's on MS's servers.

That would be what that means, yes.

Yes. So I am in worse shape now. But I did find an KB fix to allow RDP to Hyper-V Server 2019: http://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=KB4482887
This was released yesterday.

And it worked! Yippee. Now I can start trying to get Hyper-V Manager to work.
-
Well, I'll be dipped. After installing KB4482887, and running these two commands on the server: "Enable-PSRemoting" and "Enable-WSManCredSSP -Role server"; I came back to Hyper-V Manager and BAM! connected right up!
