Prepare-PlacesEnablement script fails with "Please run the PreparePlacesPowershell7 script first"
digging further - I manually installed Places - seemingly successfully - and then it won't connect to places:
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Install-Module -Name MicrosoftPlaces -AllowPrerelease -Force
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Connect-MicrosoftPlaces
Connect-MicrosoftPlaces : The term 'Connect-MicrosoftPlaces' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function,
script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is
correct and try again.

I hacked away at it until I got it. But I won't be able to say that fully until I see that the web view works. We're a small org with several meeting rooms. Not even sure this will be worth it.

AdamK_DC What did you do to get further? I am stuck at this last bit as well. I also tried manually installing the MicrosoftPlaces module, same results. Thanks.

- Make sure I was using Powershell 7 x64 in Admin mode
- Install the relevant modules
I was all over the place. If you're good - never mind. If you're still trying to set it up - let us know how far you got.
