I have my own Powershell module which I use on many servers. I keep it on a network share which is added on some machines to the PSModulePath variable: \\\Server\Scripts\MyModule\.
This allowed me to always use the latest version of my module on each server and I only had to update a single copy.
Now with Powershell 5 there is an issue. If I have this network path in PSModulePath I can't remote onto this machine.

It's a known error and it could be fixed with enabling second hoop.
Is there a better way to deploy a module and keep it always up-to-date then my approach?

I installed AutomatedLab.msi from here - https://github.com/AutomatedLab/AutomatedLab/releases
it installed without any errors but there doesn't appear to be any powershell modules available... or it doesn't seem to know where the modules are? Is there anything else that I can do...

Resolve-DnsName is one of the commands added in Windows 8/Windows 2012 and later. By design, it is not available on versions of Windows prior to that regardless of which version of PowerShell you use. The command is unavailable on Windows 7 and Windows 2008 R2 and earlier. Most sources I've read say that the underlying WinAPI functions that the command depends upon were added in Windows 8/2012.
I would recommend using [System.Net.Dns]::GetHostEntry($HostnameOrIP) or one of the other non-obsolete static methods in that class. However, that only works for A, AAAA, and PTR records, and there isn't a class in the .Net Framework CLR for generic DNS requests. You'd have to roll your own or use a third-party library like ARSoft.Tools.Net.

Currently, Set-AzureRmDataFactoryV2 cmdlet is not supported on Linux. AzureRM.NetCore supports following services.
Virtual Machine
App Service (Websites)
SQL Database
Storage

More information please refer to this official document.
If possible, I suggest you could use Azure CLI.
I have solved this issue in my machine by updating Az.DataFactory module.
Install/update latest AzureRM.DataFactoryV2 module.
Restart your powershell.
try the above command.
it will work successfully.

I have a problem where Import-Module -Name "./MyAssembly.dll" stops working sporadically. If I restart the computer, everything seems to work as normal for a while, but it's getting really frustrating.
The reason for importing the same module (in different Powershell sessions) is because I'm currently writing a cmdlet using C#, and I start a powershell instance as part of debugging the cmdlet.
The Import-Module command gives me no feedback whatsoever of whether or not the loading succeeded.
