Hi @Ramki

To makes sure you can install Teams module successfully, it recommends you use PowerShell 5.1 or higher on all platforms and make sure you are starting the PowerShell session using Run as administrator in Windows.

In addition, please check if you have installed Teams module before. If you have installed before, try to uninstall it and install the newest version again.
