You can store your password to be used on a remote computer using the Get-Credential command like this:

`$Credential = Get-Credential

You'll see a prompt like this appear:

I would recommend storing the applications you need to install in a central place, that all of your remote devices can reach. I'll assume you've stored them in the UNC Path: \\FileServer\Application

Let's say you wanted to install 7Zip and had it present in that path:

$Credential = Get-Credential
$Computers = 'RemotePC1', 'RemotePC2'
Invoke-Command -ComputerName $Computers -Credential $Credential `
  -ScriptBlock {& \\FileServer\Application\7Zip.msi} -ArgumentList '/q INSTALLDIR="C:\Program Files\7-Zip"'
