Azure and Powershell - Round 1

 Install-Module -Name Az -Verbose

(did you try Install-Module -Name -Az -Verbose -Force ?  Hello, Azure for Dummies readers.  It is an irresponsible typo.)

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Install-Module -Name -Az -Verbose -Force

NuGet provider is required to continue

PowerShellGet requires NuGet provider version '2.8.5.201' or newer to interact with NuGet-based repositories. The NuGet

 provider must be available in 'C:\Program Files\PackageManagement\ProviderAssemblies' or

'C:\Users\XXXXXX\AppData\Local\PackageManagement\ProviderAssemblies'. You can also install the NuGet provider by running

 'Install-PackageProvider -Name NuGet -MinimumVersion 2.8.5.201 -Force'. Do you want PowerShellGet to install and

import the NuGet provider now?

[Y] Yes  [N] No  [S] Suspend  [?] Help (default is "Y"):

WARNING: Both Az and AzureRM modules were detected on this machine. Az and AzureRM modules cannot be imported in the same session or used in the same script or runbook. If you are running PowerShell in an environment you control you can use the 'Uninstall-AzureRm' cmdlet to remove all AzureRm modules from your machine. If you are running in Azure Automation, take care that none of your runbooks import both Az and AzureRM modules. More information can be found here: https://aka.ms/azps-migration-guide
