instance contains localsystem context. how can achieve this?
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms684190(v=vs.85).aspx
from documentation linked to:
this account does not have password. if specify localsystem account in call createservice or changeserviceconfig function, any password information provide ignored.
so, supply "any password information" in pscredential
constructor:
$username = "nt authority\system" $password = "whatever feel like" | convertto-securestring -asplaintext -force $localsystemcreds = new-object -typename pscredential -argumentlist $username,$password
