+**Purpose**: You will need to enable secure WinRM management of the Windows devices you are running playbooks against, as compared to the Linux devices.  The following powershell script needs to be ran on every Windows device you intend to run Ansible playbooks on:
+
+``` powershell
+# Script to configure WinRM over HTTPS on the Hyper-V host
+
+# Ensure WinRM is enabled
+Write-Host "Enabling WinRM..."
+winrm quickconfig -force
+
+# Generate a self-signed certificate (Optional: Use your certificate if you have one)
+$cert = New-SelfSignedCertificate -CertStoreLocation Cert:\LocalMachine\My -DnsName "hyperv-host.local"
+$certThumbprint = $cert.Thumbprint
+
+# Delete existing HTTPS listener if it exists
+Write-Host "Removing existing HTTPS listener if it exists..."
+$existingListener = (winrm enumerate winrm/config/listener | Select-String -Pattern "Transport=HTTPS")
+if ($existingListener) {
+    winrm delete winrm/config/Listener?Address=*+Transport=HTTPS
+}
+
+# Create a new HTTPS listener
+Write-Host "Creating a new HTTPS listener..."
+$listenerCmd = "winrm create winrm/config/Listener?Address=*+Transport=HTTPS '@{Hostname=`"hyperv-host.local`"; CertificateThumbprint=`"$certThumbprint`"}'"
+Invoke-Expression $listenerCmd
+
+# Set TrustedHosts to allow connections from the Ansible control node
+# Replace "ansible_control_node_ip" with the IP address of your Ansible control node
+$trustedHosts = "ansible_control_node_ip"
+Write-Host "Setting TrustedHosts to $trustedHosts..."
+winrm set winrm/config/client '@{TrustedHosts="' + $trustedHosts + '"}'
+
+# Enable the firewall rule for WinRM over HTTPS
+Write-Host "Enabling firewall rule for WinRM over HTTPS..."
+$existingFirewallRule = Get-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "WinRM HTTPS" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
+if (-not $existingFirewallRule) {
+    New-NetFirewallRule -Name "WINRM-HTTPS-In-TCP-PUBLIC" -DisplayName "WinRM HTTPS" -Enabled True -Direction Inbound -Protocol TCP -LocalPort 5986 -RemoteAddress Any -Action Allow
+}
