NuGet provider is required to continue
PowerShellGet requires NuGet provider version '2.8.5.201' or newer to interact with NuGet-based repositories. The NuGet provider must be available in
'C:\Program Files\PackageManagement\ProviderAssemblies' or 'C:\Users\AD163521\AppData\Local\PackageManagement\ProviderAssemblies'. You can also install the
NuGet provider by running 'Install-PackageProvider -Name NuGet -MinimumVersion 2.8.5.201 -Force'. Do you want PowerShellGet to install and import the NuGet
provider now?

At C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\PowerShellGet\ there were two folders

1.0.0.1 and 1.1.0.0

On our stand by server only the 1.0.0.1 folder existed.

I removed the folder 1.1.0.0 and restarted PS.

All commands now working as expected.

You need to troubleshoot and fix your system. If earlier than Windows 10 then you will need to reinstall the package manger. The module the system is looking for is an old module. You may need to manually upgrade the package management system.

In the future note that the first error reported is the only one you need to focus on. The rest are what are referred to as "run-on" errors usually caused by code executing after a fatal error.

Thanks for responding.

Its a 2016 Server.

I've been looking for some info on how to repair this but can't find anything relevant.

You may need to repair your system. That is beyond the scope of this forum.

To start create a new account and try running the install again.

If you installed an older copy of Visual Studio it may have damaged the NuGet Components. If you tried to install NuGet then you may have damaged PowerShell. There is no way for us to know how you caused this to happen.

Now upgrade PowerShellGet to the latest version or you will have new issues. Whatever you did installed the wrong module. The current module for WS2016 is 2.0.3

The upgrade does not remove old versions.

Update-module PowerShellGet -force
