Get-PnPSubWebs A parameter cannot be found that matches parameter name 'Includes' - powershell

I seem not to get the Includes parameter to work anymore. I've tried to uninstall the PnP module aswell but with no success. Does this work for you guys?
The PS script:
Connect-PnPOnline -Url https://{mydomain}.sharepoint.com -UseWebLogin
Get-PnPSubWebs -Recurse -Includes HasUniqueRoleAssignments
Error:
Get-PnPSubWebs : A parameter cannot be found that matches parameter name 'Includes'.
At line:1 char:25
+ Get-PnPSubWebs -Recurse -Includes HasUniqueRoleAssignments
+ ~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidArgument: (:) [Get-PnPSubWebs], ParameterBindingException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : NamedParameterNotFound,SharePointPnP.PowerShell.Commands.GetSubWebs
I used this script about a month ago and it worked perfectly. Any clue what could be the cause of this?

Unable to create SharePoint online list items using Power shell

I want to add list items inside a SharePoint online list, so i run this command:-
$SiteUrl = "https://***.sharepoint.com/sites/t"
$ListName= "Child2"
Connect-PnPOnline -Url $SiteUrl -UseWebLogin
$Ctx = Get-PnPContext
#Get the list Item
$List=$Ctx.Web.Lists.GetByTitle($ListName)
$Import = Import-Csv -Path "C:\CSV\finaldelta3.csv"
for ($counter=0; $counter -lt $Import.Length; $counter++){
$ListItemInfo = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ListItemCreationInformation
$ListItem = $List.AddItem($ListItemInfo)
#Set Column Values
$ListItem["Title"] = "Hello World!"
#Apply changes to list
$ListItem.Update()
$Ctx.ExecuteQuery()
}
now on one tenant, i will not get any error, but the list item will not get created, while on another tenant i got this exception and also the item will not get created as well:-
Cannot convert argument "parameters", with value:
"Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ListItemCreationInformation", for

so any idea what is going on?

Have you tried updating your SPO Management Shell:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=35588
And/or the SPO Client Component SDK:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42038
I'm not sure if it is required by PnPOnline, but with SPOServices you need to load the assembly as well:
Add-Type -Path "$Env:ProgramFiles\Common Files\microsoft shared\Web Server Extensions\16\ISAPI\Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.dll"
Add-Type -Path "$Env:ProgramFiles\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\16\ISAPI\Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Runtime.dll"
Add-Type -Path "$Env:ProgramFiles\SharePoint Client Components\16.0\Assemblies\Microsoft.Online.SharePoint.Client.Tenant.dll"
Or alternatively:
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SharePoint.Client") | Out-Null
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Runtime") | Out-Null
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.Online.SharePoint.Client.Tenant") | Out-Null
Personally, I start my script with
#Requires -Module Microsoft.Online.SharePoint.PowerShell

Powershell create access policy Azure

I'm trying to create an access policy so that I can create meetings using Microsoft Graph API on the user's behalf. To do this I need to do a script that is similar to this:
Connect-MicrosoftTeams
New-CsApplicationAccessPolicy -Identity Random -AppIds "applicationid" -Description "Users"
Grant-CsApplicationAccessPolicy -PolicyName Random -Identity "userId"
But when I try to run the second line I get this error:

I'm guessing it has something to do with the first command that it's not remembering my login, but I can't find anywhere on how to do this. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong and what the correct way is?.
Edit:
I finished the first problem. I needed to create an account on the active directory itself because Microsoft accounts weren't allowed. But my second error is still here:
Invoke-Command : Cannot validate argument on parameter 'Session'. The argument is null or empty. Provide an argument that is
not null or empty, and then try the command again.

Is there a way to set the session via a parameter or is this something you need to do outside this method?

What does this error mean Set-Location "path" is null in Powershell?

Total newbie here...
I am attempting to execute a ps1 file using Powershell and receiving an error. What does this error mean? I'm concerned that OneDrive is causing an issue with the path.
Running this ps1 file by opening powershell and entering:
PowerShell -executionpolicy Bypass -NoExit C:\Users\Terry\OneDrive\desktop\WindowsPull.ps1
This is the file:
$segmentFolders = Get-ChildItem | where {$_.Attributes -eq 'Directory'}
Error:
Set-Location : Cannot process argument because the value of argument "path" is null. Change the value of argument
"path" to a non-null value.

If I had a penny for every minute I've wasted on PowerShell's insistance that backticks, quotes and other meta-characters are just right, I would be the richest man on Earth! Somebody please save me from this madness!
And BTW, what I'm actually trying to do is recurse through a bunch of folders and delete everything that isn't a video file, like so...
Remove-Item -Path $filePath -Recurse -Exclude '*.avi','*.mkv','*.mp4'
...which doesn't work for (presumably) the same reason: not being able to pass a variable to the -Path parameter. And if someone is feeling really generous, they could also help me with this. MTIA! :D
Use -LiteralPath instead of -Path because some of the special characters where interpreted with -Path.
Remove-Item -LiteralPath
Special characters are just so much fun in PS right?
-LiteralPath works exactly like Patrick explained, but they don't allow for wildcards; because they're literal.
Have you tried using single quotes ' instead of double quotes ". This allows you to escape special characters, while still evaluating wildcards. Try the commands below:
New-Item -Path 'C:\Users\username\PSScripts\bracket`[\te$t.txt'
Get-Item -Path 'C:\Users\username\PSScripts\bracket`[\*'
Also, if it helps, I use VSCode for most scripting and, if you use tab completion, it will format this properly for you.
I hope that helps!
The solution to my overall problem ended up being this line of my batch script:
powershell -Command "Get-ChildItem -Recurse -LiteralPath %filePath% | Where-Object Extension -match '^(?!(\.avi|\.mkv|\.mp4)$)' | Remove-Item"
The regex was the hardest to get right, since I haven't used negative lookaheads before, but after ~2 hours of total time spent on this one line of code, it finally works!

Powershell: pass system key as a argument

I want to pass -Unique as parameter for select-string
param(
$y="CAR"
$parameter=""
)
get-childitem -r -i "*.txt"| select-string "TABLE FILE $y" | Select-Object filename,path $parameter
But whenever i try to pass the parameter, i get the following error
powershell : Select-Object : A positional parameter cannot be found that accepts argument '-Unique'.

You can't pass a switch as a string parameter like that. You need to use a technique called 'splatting'. See help about_splatting or https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/reference/5.1/microsoft.powershell.core/about/about_splatting
