Windows 10: Unable to setup several computers as clients with Windows Admin Center

Previously (about 6 months ago) I had WAC working with Windows 10 (1803) running the host and was able to control all my client machines. Upgraded to Windows 10 (1809) and WAC 1809.5 Build 1.1.1812.03003 and now I can only manage to connect to 1 client.
I have checked the TrustedHosts list on the server, run the following Powershell commands on all clients:-

REG ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy /t REG_DWORD /d 1

Set-NetFirewallRule -Name WINRM-HTTP-In-TCP -RemoteAddress Any

The error message I get when I try to add a (failing) client is:-
A computer with the name 'xx' was not automatically discovered. You can still add it to your connections list, but its availability cannot be verified.

Could someone help please?

Unable to setup Homegroup on Windows 10 computer

Hello Mike,

We understand the inconvenience you have experienced.

• Did you try setting up HomeGroup on another computer?
• Is your computer installed with any third party Antivirus or Online security software?

Suggest you to check this issue by restarting your computer once, post complete shutdown, to see if it goes correctly. Also ensure that your computer is up to date with Windows Updates.
Go to Start Button/>Settings/>Update & Security/> Windows Update and click
Check the updates. If you find any pending updates, then try to install them and see if it makes any difference.

Follow the below mentioned steps to setup HomeGroup on Windows 10.

• 
  Right-click on Start and select
  Control Panel from the context menu.
  

• 
  Select
  Network and Sharing center option, then click on the
  HomeGroup at the bottom left fringe on the Network and Sharing Center window.
  

• 
  Click
  Create a homegroup button. You see the list of files and devices that you would like to share within the HomeGroup.
  
• 
  On the drop down menu beside every item set the
  level of permission of each item, then click Next once you are done.
  

• 
  You will be taken to the next step where you can see an
  auto-generated password. If the computer need to participate in the HomeGroup then they require this password for authentication. You can also modify the password later. Tap the
  Finish button.
  

Now join other PC into this HomeGroup, which you think should participate in the HomeGroup activities.

Keep us posted if you require further assistance.
