What is a valid PowerShell parameter entry?

Hi Expert,

What is a valid parameter for LocalAccountNames and Local Account, this script doesn't work properly? Can you tell what's missing?

Thank you.

Param

      [Parameter(Position=0,Mandatory=$false)]
      [ValidateNotNullorEmpty()]
      [Alias('cn')][String[]]$ComputerName=$Env:COMPUTERNAME,
      [Parameter(Position=1,Mandatory=$false)]
      [Alias('un')][String[]]$AccountName,
      [Parameter(Position=2,Mandatory=$false)]
      [Alias('cred')][System.Management.Automation.PsCredential]$Credential
)
      
$Obj = @()

Foreach($Computer in $ComputerName)
{
      If($Credential)
      {
            $AllLocalAccounts = Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_UserAccount -Namespace "root\cimv2" `
            -Filter "LocalAccount='$True'" -ComputerName $Computer -Credential $Credential -ErrorAction Stop
      }
      else

Thank you. When I used ISE to select the script and pressed F8 the script worked fine but I discovered a script error when I made a manual entry. My mistake. Thank you for the quick response.
