Hi @sns ,

If no information is displayed, you do not have the SharePoint Online PowerShell Module installed.

Please run the following command to install SharePoint Online PowerShell Module:

Install-Module Microsoft.Online.SharePoint.PowerShell

Confirm the prompt, and you’ll see the PowerShell module for SharePoint Online starts downloading and installing:

Thanks,

With the deprecation of TLS 1.0 and 1.1 for PowerShell Gallery as of April 2020, the cmdlets Update-Module and Install-Module became broken. Thus, according to this article, some commands need to be executed to bring them alive again:

[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12 Install-Module PowerShellGet -RequiredVersion 2.2.4 -SkipPublisherCheck

If that still doesn't work, then run the following commands:

[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol -bor [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12 Register-PSRepository -Default -Verbose Set-PSRepository -Name "PSGallery" -InstallationPolicy Trusted

TLS 1.0 and 1.1 were also recently deprecated at NuGet.org:

But that was also previously announced.

Hi @sns ,

Thanks for your reply.

According to my research on your problem, this is already more related to Windows PowerShell.

We suggest you open a new post with "windows-server-powershell" tag to get more professional help.

Thanks,
