Which version of oh-my-posh are you using? This is kinda the inverse of #9237. You may want to try Set-Theme instead of Set-PoshPrompt.

There's also a TON of discussion over on our docs repo: https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/terminal/issues?q=is%3Aissue+label%3Apowerline+

Is your current account an admin account? Did you try running Import-Module oh-my-posh as an admin?

@lujomu commented on GitHub (Dec 22, 2021):

Got the same error.

In my case the problem is, I have the PSCX module (https://github.com/Pscx/Pscx) installed, which exports its own 'Expand-Archive' command and occludes the built-in one from the Microsoft.PowerShell.Archive module.

PS D:> Get-Command 'Expand-Archive'

CommandType     Name                Version    Source
-----------     ----                -------    ------
Cmdlet          Expand-Archive      3.3.2      Pscx

Apparently the name clash will be resolved in the next release (https://github.com/Pscx/Pscx/blob/master/ReleaseNotes.txt).

In the meantime, importing the Microsoft.PowerShell.Archive module right before invoking/importing oh-my-posh should work around this issue.

Edit: Apparently you have to delete the already downloaded executable, or otherwise the theme download won't initiate:

Remove-Item "$env:POSH_PATH\oh-my-posh.exe"
Import-Module 'Microsoft.PowerShell.Archive'
Import-Module 'oh-my-posh' -Force
