Problems setting up Azure in Powershell

Question

I'm trying to follow the directions here: Azure Resource Manager Cmdlets

I do this:

PS C:\> Install-Module AzureRM

That works, then I try this:

PS C:\> Install-AzureRM

I get this message:

Install-AzureRM : The term 'Install-AzureRM' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program.

What am I missing?

Answer 1

The Install-Module in article you came across is referring to cmdlet come with WMF5.0. In other words, only available in Powershell 5.0

There is another version of Install-Module come with PsGet, but that one won't accomplish your task (Install-Module AzureRM), so please try to avoid it.

If you don't want to install powershell 5.0, but want azure cmdlet, you can find stand-alone module installer here.
