Hi,

When I run Get-KbInstalledSoftware on my machine, I encountered below warning message.

Get-KbInstalledSoftware -ComputerName localhost
WARNING: [13:57:29][Invoke-KbCommand] Failure on localhost | Unable to find package providers (msi,msu,Programs).

I'm receiving the same errors on the same lines as crimsonread using PowerShell 7.3.1, but if I use PowerShell 5.1 it works.
