Azure PowerShell will not connect - powershell

I have downloaded and installed the Azure Powershell by following the MS instructions:
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/powershell-install-configure/
Using the Windows Powershell ISE I run the command:
Login-AzureRmAccount
which returns the the error:
Login-AzureRmAccount : The 'Login-AzureRmAccount' command was found in the module 'AzureRM.Profile', but the module could not be loaded. For more information, run 'Import-Module AzureRM.Profile'. At line:1 char:1
+ Login-AzureRmAccount
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (Login-AzureRmAccount:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : CouldNotAutoloadMatchingModule
Import-Module AzureRM.Profile
Returns this error:
Import-Module : File C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft
SDKs\Azure\PowerShell\ResourceManager\AzureResourceManager\AzureRM.Profile\CheckVersions.ps1 cannot be loaded
because running scripts is disabled on this system. For more information, see about_Execution_Policies at
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=135170.

+ Import-Module AzureRM.Profile
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : SecurityError: (:) [Import-Module], PSSecurityException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : UnauthorizedAccess,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.ImportModuleCommand
Why is it so difficult to connect to Azure, what could be wrong?

From the command prompt run:
powershell Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned

This could be due to the current user having an undefined ExecutionPolicy.
Run PowerShell as Administrator, you could try the following:
Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope CurrentUser -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted
copy the above command and paste it on powershell the press Enter.
and then type A and Enter

powershell Microsoft.PowerShell.Utility module could not be loaded

I have this problem in a brand new workstation with Windows 10 installed: on powershell, the 5.1, when I call "Write-Host 'test'" I receive
Write-Host : The 'Write-Host' command was found in the module
'Microsoft.PowerShell.Utility', but the module could not
be loaded. For more information, run 'Import-Module Microsoft.PowerShell.Utility'.
At line:1 char:1
+ Write-Host "test"
+ ~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (Write-Host:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : CouldNotAutoloadMatchingModule
And if I try to Import-Module I receive an error.
I installed the powershell 7.2 and in that case I have no problem, but I must use the 5.1 for compatibility reasons.
I already tried to remove/reinstall the powershell windows feature but no way.
Does anyone have a suggestion?
Thx

Error during installing PSWindows Update module

I was going to automate some regular task on client computers using Powershell module. In this way, PSWINDOWSUPDATE is one of bests. But, I receive an error during install that:
PS C:\Users\stackoverflow> install-module -name pswindowsupdate -scope currentuser
PackageManagement\Install-Package : Package 'PSWindowsUpdate' failed to be installed because:
Access to the path 'C:\Users\stackoverflow\AppData\Local\Temp\ipufiq2h\PSWindowsUpdate.dll' is denied.

running the command in administrative mode and without -scope switch didn't solve the problem.
Edit1: The problem is solved. But there is another problem. When I call import-module pswindowsupdate following error occurs:
import-module : Errors occurred while loading the format data file:

Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned

Installing CCM client on PC via powershell

I'm trying to speed up how soon SCCM recognises a device on the domain and starts the process of installing applications.
I have the below in powershell
$CCMInstallerPath = "\\ServerFQDN\SMS_MAN\Client\ccmsetup.exe"
$args = "/mp:MPServer", "/LOGON", "/UsePKICert", "SMSSLP=SMSSLPServer", "SMSSITECODE=MAN"

I get the below error:

ServerFQDN is a replacement for one of our NM servers
I can fully connect to the folder and run the exe manually
I am running elevated powershell
Issue was caused by incorrect share permissions found in effective access.
Permission was granted to run the file but effective access was showing differences
