    Hi,

    Thanks for your question.

    You can use "Invoke-Command" cmdlet to run commands remotely.

    Invoke-Command -ComputerName Server01, Server02 -ScriptBlock {type your commands}

    No, when you run "Get-Credential", you will get a credential object based on a user name and password.

    You can type the username and password, and the variable $cred will save the credential. You can use the credential to get a remote session with your machines.

    Invoke-command can help solve your PowerShell remote session.

    Save the remote machines' names or IPs in the text file.

    psexec @computers.txt -d -n 5 cmd /c \\server\folder\file.BAT
    You enlist the names or IPs of the PCs to contact in the computers.txt file. The -d will detach psexec, allowing to run the batch in-parallel on several machines - without psexec will wait until the batch file terminates, before switching to the next PC.

    Download it here:

    Just do it.
