Exchange Online PowerShell Module Error: Application Cannot be Started – Contact the Application Vendor

While doing a workshop about PowerShell for Office 365 recently, and working with the Exchange Online PowerShell Module, which is needed to authenticate to Exchange Online with MFA , a lot of my students have hit the following error: Application cannot be started. Contact the application vendor.

Exchange Online PowerShell Module Error: Application Cannot be Started

Even if the Details tab don’t say much, this is an easy fix! This is happening only when downloading the Exchange Online PowerShell Module by using Chrome or Firefox, so the fix is simple: Use Internet Explorer to download the Exchange Online PowerShell Module! That’s it!

PS: If you want to know how to connect to all Office 365 using Multi Factor Authentication, check out this blog: Connecting to all Office 365 Services with PowerShell and Multi Factor Authentication
