Is the service running on the remote server? The screenshot says "Local" so I wasn't sure...
First thing I'd check is if the remote server has Remote Registry enabled.
If that service is not running, the command won't work. There is no way around that. Well, one way around it would be to run the command on the physical server as then you aren't accessing a remote machine and as such don't need remote registry (just need permissions to read the registry).
The above is all just my opinion on what you should do.
As with all advice you find on a random internet forum - you shouldn't blindly follow it. Always test on a test server to see if there is negative side effects before making changes to live!
I recommend you NEVER run "random code" you found online on any system you care about UNLESS you understand and can verify the code OR you don't care if the code trashes your system. -
My recommendation would be to contact the people that wrote the "Get-DbaProductKey" PoSh snippet and ask them.
