Doesn't appear to work any more?

On PowerShell 5.1, latest Windows 10.

Looks like the GitHub URLs are no longer valid?

Install-Module InstallModuleFromGitHub

Find-Module nameit | Install-ModuleFromGitHub

Without having a windows machine in front of me at the moment, the first thing that catches my eye is that you’re running PS 5.1.

I remember that the PSModulePath on windows changed from PS 5.1 to 7.x. Do you have to ability to test this with PS 7.1 or higher?

Aha, this is an issue with the copy-path cmdlet. PR #25 was opened to address this.

Sure - although does that explain the first 'Invoke-RestMethod: {"message":"Not Found","documentation_url":"https://docs.github.com/rest"}' error at the top?
