  • what worked for me is to allow PSGallery, and to specify -Scope CurrentUser  for the cmdlet installation

     

    Install-Module -Name MicrosoftPowerBIMgmt -Scope CurrentUser

        Powershell 4 ?!? What is this, 2005?  😉 The new modules require Powershell 6, and v7 just came out. Upgrade to at least v6 if you can.
