I found there is latest VMware.PowerCLI version 13 as per attached screen shot.
But when i initiate update the module, i hit by an error :
PS C:\> Update-Module VMware.PowerCLI
Update-Module : Module 'VMware.PowerCL' was not updated because no valid module was found in the module directory. Verify that the module is located
in the folder specified by $env:PSModulePath.
At line:1 char:1
+ Update-Module VMware.PowerCL -Force
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (VMware.PowerCL:String) [Write-Error], WriteErrorException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : ModuleNotInstalledOnThisMachine,Update-Module

When i checked my env PS Module, my output as per below:
S C:\> $env:PSModulePath
C:\Users\pl\OneDrive - moto.my\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules;C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules;C:\WINDOWS\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules
Please advise how may i resolve this
Hi LucD /Team,
I still had the same error even using the above option as per below:
PS C:\> Update-Module VMware.PowerCLI -Force
Update-Module : Module 'VMware.PowerCLI' was not installed by using Install-Module, so it cannot be updated.

Looks like you might have made a typo.
You type VMware.PowerCL instead of VMware.PowerCLI
Update-Module VMware.PowerCLI -Force

How did you install the current PowerCLI installation?
From a ZIP file?
Best approach would be to remove all PowerCLI folders manually.
Then use Install-Module to install fresh
