Unable to add AutomatedLab.Common.dll

[Raimund Andrée [MSFT]]

Importing the module does not work. Due to the missing types, deployments are failing when accessing the type [GPO.Helper].

PS C:\> ipmo AutomatedLab.Common
WARNING: Unable to add AutomatedLab.Common.dll - GPO and PKI functionality might be impaired.
Exception was: Cannot bind parameter 'Path' to the target. Exception setting "Path": "Cannot find path 'C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\AutomatedLab.Common\2.0.129\lib\full\AutomatedLab.Common.dll' becaus

Just realized this only occurs if the module is installed along with the MSI. After downloading it from the gallery, things work as expected.

Cannot reproduce. Windows PowerShell: 5.1.18362.1, PowerShell Core: 6.2.0

Both work fine:

Import-Module AutomatedLab.Common
[GPO.Helper]

IsPublic IsSerial Name                                     BaseType
