How to remotely restore access to a computer on which Domain Administrators have been removed from Administrators?
There is a DOMAIN computer under Windows 7, on which the "Domain Admins" group is not included in the local "Administrators" group (maybe something else has been tweaked). I have domain administrator rights and local administrator password for this computer. However, almost no remote management tools can be used. The Local Users and Groups snap-in lets you see the users/groups, but you can't change anything. Remote desktop, psexec, wmic, tasklist, sc (service management), C$ (service balls), regedit and reg -- all denied access. GP also does not work for some unknown reason. Can it be cured without physical access to the computer?

when connecting to this computer, when specifying a username, set the login in the form COMPNAME\local_admin
Unfortunately, this is not possible remotely, by design. Only locally.
1. Try to reconnect
net use \\remote_machine /delete
net use \\remotecomp /user:\\remotecomp\local_admin password
And only then try to call the management snap-in.
2. Try to perform step 1. from a non-domain computer.
3.Teamviewer/remote desktop?
