Hi, I have the same error. The above solutions did not work.
Is there any other solution?
Julio
try to install windows management framework 4.0
My issue was due to Powershell being blocked by antivirus software. Once an exception was added for Powershell, everything worked fine.
OMG thank you so much. I had the same issue and I tried everything before I find your message. It works. (It was COMODO antivirus if someone interested)
