    I've come across this issue, and I've discovered it's because my profile is on a UNC path, and if I've run as Administrator (as instructions invariably do...), I lose permissions to access the UNC path.

    The best solution for me is to either avoid using Administrator privileges or just use a local profile if needing to escalate.

    Unfortunately, it does not work either. BTW I checked most solutions from many forums/tutorials/solutions and nothing.

    Still disappointed Microsoft don't have a real solution to refresh/reinstall/heal faulty PowerShell or PowerShell module.

    depending on what you need, I would advise you to connect to MS first, and start a powershell session from there :

    I hardly use the 'local' cmdlets anymore

    #connect to office365 without MFA

    $Office365Admin = Get-Credential ******@heliconnl.onmicrosoft.com #use youre officeadmin account

    $SESSION = New-PSSession -ConfigurationName Microsoft.Exchange -ConnectionUri "https://outlook.office365.com/powershell-liveid/" -Credential $O365CREDS -Authentication "Basic" -AllowRedirection

    Import-PSSession $SESSION

    Connect-MicrosoftTeams -Credential $Office365Admin

    regards Tom
