Getting error using Connect-MgGraph in PowerShell after running update-module

Question

I updated my modules in PowerShell on 4/22/2021 and now when I try to execute:

Connect-MgGraph -ClientID HIDDEN -TenantId HIDDEN -CertificateThumbprint HIDDEN 

I am getting the following error:

Connect-MgGraph : Could not load type 'System.IdentityModel.Tokens.Jwt.JwtSecurityTokenHandler' from assembly 'System.IdentityModel.Tokens.Jwt,
Version=4.0.20622.1351, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35'.
At line:1 char:1

• Connect-MgGraph -ClientID $env:PnPClientId -TenantId $env:PnPTenantId ...
• ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
• CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [Connect-MgGraph], TypeLoadException
• FullyQualifiedErrorId : Microsoft.Graph.PowerShell.Authentication.Cmdlets.ConnectMgGraph

Executing the connect statement prior to executing update-module, connected successfully.

microsoft.graph.authentication is now version 1.5.0

Does anyone have suggestions on how to fix this error so I can connect?
