Answer 1

I solved same issue with executing below command in windows PowerShell and ISE PowerShell

Update-AzConfig -EnableLoginByWam $false

Answer 2

Hi,

Typically this happens because of some outdated module, simply try by updating them:

I included the MS id client as The error points towards an issue with the Microsoft.Identity.Client.

Update-Module -Name Az
Install-Module -Name Microsoft.Identity.Client

or just fresh re-install:

Uninstall-Module -Name Az -AllVersions 
Install-Module -Name Az -AllowClobber -Scope CurrentUser

Also, check if you have the latest Powershell installed and .Net Fw:

$PSVersionTable.PSVersion

and for .Net go in: (Regedit)

HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP

I hope that this was useful !
