    Hi LazyAdmin,

    The solution is not working for me.

      Try and run the following to get a list of the Current Installed AzureAD PSH.
      Get-Module -Name AzureAD and Get-Module -Name AzureADPreview

      you might find that you dont have any of these Modules installed, run the below to install these modules on your machine.

      Install-Module -Name AzureAD

      Then

      Update-Module -Name AzureAD
