Hello, On Windows Server 2016, [pre]Get-PSRepository[/pre] command returns below error: PackageManagement\Get-PackageSource : Unable to find module providers (PowerShellGet). Running [pre]Get-PackageSource[/pre] retuns this errror: Get-PackageSource : Unable to find package providers (). This is happening only on Windows Server 2016. Any ideas? Thank you. ---
