This looks like you're on your workstation, not server. SKU 48 means Pro edition :)
If you want to operate powershell interactively on remote machine you should reconnect to it after restart:
It is possible to run ServerManager on workstation, but requires tools to be installed (RSAT - Remote Server Administration Toolkit)

i have windows8.1 pro and i found this tut maybe this works: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2693643/remote-server-administration-tools-rsat-for-windows-operating-systems
ASKER

,i run a powershell script to enable multiple users and i restart rdp and now i cannot find servr manager how to enable it?
You wrote that you're connecting thru rdp, so get back to rdp, connect and then start powershell.
ASKER
ok i run nromal powesrehll or as administrator? ok ,next?
It depends on UAC settings and what you want to do on that machine. For simplicity start as administrator. Open remote desktop (Win->Run->mstsc), connec to to desired machine, start powershell.
ASKER
i did that, next?ok tell me step by step please and if a problem appear ur here and we can solve this problem
Now verify what's the operationg system you're connected to:

(Get-WindowsFeature -Name 'Server-Gui-Shell').Installed

ASKER
anyaway i want to try this solution,i hope this will work with windows server 2012 , 2008 and 8
this rdp server accept only 1 user dones't allow 2 users connectiing at the same timeFrom results above it is clear that you're on your workstation not server, that's why ServerManager doesn't work.
In case you want to have this feature on a workstation you need to install RSAT.
First download them, next install, then turn windows features on/off from link you provided.
