The module does not get installed.

Note that I needed to set my TLS version to 1.2 using
[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12
Otherwise I couldnt even connect to the gallery. Not sure if its related.

Any Ideas?

Seems like some issue with PowerShell itself, am transferring this to discussions.

I saw from another discussion that it works with PS 7.01. I installed that and its working fine!
