Powershell script to delete all versions of files in a sharepoint site from all libraries
Hi rohankapz,
The error message you are getting means that the PowerShellGet module cannot find the Microsoft.SharePointOnline.CSOM module in any of the registered module repositories.
To fix this, you can try the following:
- Make sure that you have the latest version of PowerShell installed.
- Make sure that you have the PowerShellGet module installed. If you don't, you can install it using the following command:
Install-Module PowerShellGet
Clear the PowerShellGet module cache using the following command:
Update-Module -Name PowerShellGet -Force
Try installing the Microsoft.SharePointOnline.CSOM module again using the following command:
Install-Module -Name Microsoft.SharePointOnline.CSOM -Force -AllowClobber
If you are still getting the same error, you can try installing the Microsoft.SharePointOnline.CSOM module manually. To do this, download the module from the following website:
- Microsoft.SharePointOnline.CSOM NuGet package: https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.SharePointOnline.CSOM/
Once you have downloaded the module, extract it to a folder on your computer. Then, open a PowerShell console and navigate to the folder where you extracted the module. Finally, run the following command to install the module:
Install-Module -Path .\Microsoft.SharePointOnline.CSOM
