Hi,
Please confirm if your Exchange Management Shell (EMS) and Exchange Admin Center (EAC) can be opened or work well in your Exchange server.
If you want to reset Windows PowerShell virtual directory for default web site in Internet Information Services (IIS), please
make sure the original PowerShell virtual directory has been deleted from the server:
1. No PowerShell listed in IIS Manager.
2. No PowerShell VD in ADSIEdit (CN=Configuration,DC=domain,DC=.com > CN=Services > CN=Microsoft Exchange > CN=Domain > CN= Administrative Groups > CN=(Groupname) > CN=Servers > CN=(ServerName) > CN=Protocols > CN=HTTP).
3. Run this command from the Elevated cmd prompt -> cscript.exe Adsutil.vbs delete w3svc/1/root/PowerShell.
If your EMS can’t be opened, then we can use Windows PowerShell Module shell to create the PowerShell virtual directory to have a try. If it doesn’t work, please collect some event logs or IIS logs in your Exchange server for further analysis.
