Add-PSSnaping : no snap-ins have been registered for Windows PowerShell version 5

How can I solve this?

You can use the PowerShell Gallery module which can be installed on a per-user basis. This is the preferred installation over the MSI method.

Looks like you are running the powershell on a machine where SharePoint is not installed. You can check by running below command if that snap-in available or not?

get-pssnapin –registered

Try to run the PowerShell on the server where SharePoint is installed.

If you want to run it from pc then you try this workaround: How to add Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell to machine without SharePoint

If you want to use the SPO management then follow the instruction here: Getting started with SharePoint Online Management Shell

  • I want to connect to SharePoint-Online with powershell. The command get-pssnapin -registered gives me nothing. So I guess nothing Is registered – user78519 Jan 16 '19 at 22:23

  • And I want to use the Powershell ISE and not the sharepoint online management shell – user78519 Jan 16 '19 at 22:28
  • You have to import to import the modules inside the ISE. something like Import-Module Microsoft.Online.SharePoint.Powershell -Verbose – Waqas Sarwar MVP♦ Jan 16 '19 at 22:32
  • Get the error: Import-Module : The specified module 'Microsoft.Online.SharePoint.Powershell' was not loaded because no valid module file was found in any module directory. – user78519 Jan 16 '19 at 22:34
