When trying to fix PowerShellGet lack of AllowPrerelease Windows actually blocked me from updating PowerShellGet which I knew is the reason why it fails in first place.
When trying to fix PowerShellGet lack of AllowPrerelease Windows actually blocked me from updating PowerShellGet which I knew is the reason why it fails in first place.
Update-Module : Module 'PowershellGet' was not installed by using Install-Module, so it cannot be updated.
At line:1 char:1

This is because PowerShellGet comes builtin with Windows 2016 but it's on older version. If you want all bells and whistles you need to install newest version from PowerShellGallery.
PS C:\Windows\system32> Install-Module PowerShellGet WARNING: Version '1.0.0.1' of module 'PowerShellGet' is already installed at 'C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\PowerShellGet\1.0.0.1'. To install version '1.6.7', run Instal l-Module and add the -Force parameter, this command will install version '1.6.7' in side-by-side with version '1.0.0.1'. PS C:\Windows\system32> Install-Module PowerShellGet -Force
Finally just restart PowerShell session and subsequent commands will work without an issue.
