After installing the 7zip4PowerShell module, if I call Get-Help on any of its cmdlets, I get the message
Get-Help cannot find the Help files for this cmdlet on this computer. It is displaying only partial help.
-- To download and install Help files for the module that includes this cmdlet, use Update-Help.
If I call update-help by itself, it doesn't change anything.
If I call update-help -Module 7zip4PowerShell, I get the following:
PS C:\windows\system32> update-help -Module 7zip4PowerShell
update-help : Failed to update Help for the module(s) :
'7Zip4Powershell'

Please try the below, sometimes there's no XML document to update.
Update-Help -Verbose -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue

According to this link
Apparently a problem at Microsoft's end it always happens since sometimes there's no XML document to update, so for the time being use this command:
Update-Help -Verbose -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
I'd like to use functionality from the latest Azure Powershell library but I'm struggling to install it. This is on an AWS x64 Windows 2012 R2 Standard server.
I get the following error

Do you have any pointers to help troubleshoot / fix please?
Thanks
Ok so I installed Win8.1AndW2K12R2-KB3134758-x64.msu from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=50395
Now Get-Module returns nothing and the first time I tried Install-Module -Name AzureAD it moaned about the -Name parameter. Second time (which I'm assuming means I'm imagining the first time) it worked. Now to see if I can add a user to an Azure AD group using the latest OpenICF connector scripts.
I am trying to install psget on windows 10 from powershell in admin mode but I get:

For more details:
get-help install-module
Or visit http://psget.net
PS C:\Windows\system32>
As suggested below PsGet is actually already installed on windows 10. I have then continued with the next step:
and as can be seen it installs successfully (needs to be done running as administrator). After a restart of the powershell console I still don't get any color highlighting though:
Any ideas?
Btw: the folder C:\Users[my-user]\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules is empty:
Um... psget as in PowerShellGet module that I am almost certain comes on Win 10. I believe your error is even telling you that. Where it says PsGet is installed and ready to use.
Looks like the script at http://psget.net/GetPsGet.ps1 tries to decide where to install by querying for #($env:PSModulePath -split ';') and then limit the search for paths under Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules.
It appears that in your computer, PSModulePath includes twice the folder C:\Users\myuser\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules, which causes an issue with the installation script.
You can do either one of these two options to solve it:
Remove one instance of C:\Users\myuser\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules from the PSModulePath variable.
Install PsGet manually using the instructions in the official website.
I apologize if this is a NOOB question but I wrote a PowerShell script on my windows 10 box and I am trying to run the script on a 2008 box. On the new install of the 2008 box I had to add the windows powershell feature. My end goal is to install the Web Server (IIS) Administration Cmdlets

Any ideas?
You need to install the IIS managment tools before the WebAdministration-module is available. Try (tested on Win10):
Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName "IIS-WebServerManagementTools" -All
Windows Server 2008 doesn't come with a PowerShell module for managing IIS. That feature was added with Windows Server 2008 R2. You need to download and install it first. See here for further information. See also this related question.
