using Powershell authorize WMI access from Computer A to Computer B

I have 2 computers A & B and I am Local Admin on both computers.

I am using an application named VisualCron to remote execute a batch file from computer A (VisualCron) to computer B (Batch file)

The execution failed with error code:

"Exception in Task: Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))"

I use the following Powershell command from Computer A to test VMI access from Computer A to Computer B, because, it is easier for me to run 1 Powershell cammnd rather than running VisualCron.

$colSettings = Get-WmiObject Win32_OperatingSystem -ComputerName "Computer B"

The error is:

Get-WmiObject : Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))

Please, note this is NOT a Powershell error but a DCOM or WMI settings error.

Therefore, I need to know how to authorize WMI access on Computer B when Computer A execute the below Powershell script

$colSettings = Get-WmiObject Win32_OperatingSystem -ComputerName "Computer B"

Any help, is more than "Welcome"

Thanks.
