Hello,

Did you check if your inventory is set up properly? you require to specify the connection mode for windows hosts.

You should read the doc first of all:

https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/windows_winrm.html#inventory-options

and then check with ansible-inventory if your inventory has all the appropriated vars.

Hello,

read the doc, please. Your inventory setup is missing some variables for that group.

Hello,

you're applying that vars to windows group only, so moving that host to another group doesn't also move the connection variables. You should study more in depth how inventories and variables work.
