Windows Server 2012 Power shell 5.1. installation failed

Question

Hello,
I am trying to install powershell version 5.1 on Windows Server 2012. Installation runs fine and prompts for restart to take effect. But after restart powershell version is still old. (v3)

I have tried to fix this by using commands: sfc /scannow
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
