Can't load the module - unsure of current solutions

Following errors:

PS H:\> \\sccm\Source\Etc\powershell\vsphere-connect.ps1
Connect-VIServer : The 'Connect-VIServer' command was found in the module 'VMware.VimAutomation.Core',
but the module could not be loaded. For more information, run 'Import-Module VMware.VimAutomation.Core'.

---------------

I've tried a couple things, but topics I've found aren't completely current, so hoping there's an all in one solution/script that will remove modules, cleanup, reinstall, unblock etc etc. Or if this is a known issue what the specific solution is.

Started telling me to run it with admin elevation even though I already was. Restarted computer, windows did a cumulative update.  Tried again.  Now working.

Thanks for your help.
