PowerShell error when accessing PowerShell gallery

Most often installing PowerCLI is no problem. Sometimes there is a PowerShell error when accessing PowerShell gallery. Like now: Just wanted to install PowerCLI onto a new Windows 10. When running the command find-module vmware* I get this error(s):

WARNING: Unable to download from URI 'https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/
         ?LinkID=627338&clcid=0x409' to ''.
WARNING: Unable to download the list of available providers. Check your internet
         connection.

Fortunately I found a solution quickly here. Problem is related to security protocols used in PowerShell. Check current protocols by running:

[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol

My Windows 10 showed this

Ss13, Tls

To solve the problem, simply set protocol TSL version 1.2 by running

[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12

After this, I could install PowerCLI without any problems.

Notes

• If NuGet is already installed, you can get the error
  WARNUNG: Unable to resolve package source 'https://www.powershellgallery.com/api/v2'.
  When running find-module. The source of this is also the security protocol configuration. My post here describes a different problem.
