Obviously you already used functions … > [@Having problems with Get-WmiObject in AD](https://forums.powershell.org/t/having-problems-with-get-wmiobject-in-ad/13180): > > Hi all, I posted [this](https://powershell.org/forums/topic/function-that-will-determined-if-a-computer-is-laptop-or-desktop/) before and i know that i wrote that everything works fine but i was wrong. I needed it for something in my job and we delayed the project and that’s why i didn’t use it up to now. The whole script eventually doing half the job. Now, it seems that whenever i run the command where the computer name comes from the command "Get-ADComputer " it return an error of RPC on the “Get-WmiObject” but if i put manually the name of the computer it runs good.   The functions is: #F… What exactly do you have problems with? If you want to (re-)use the output of a cmdlet or function you always can save it to a variable. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.powershell.org/t/function-return/18247)._
