I was successful at manually downloading the package 'https://www.powershellgallery.com/api/v2/package/MicrosoftTeams/1.0.5' and am working on maually deploying the nuget package but would love to know why the install-module command is failing.

Manually installing the Nuget package worked.

Hello @tumtum73 Stephen 👍 how are you? Hope you are doing great.
Here, we are limited to documentation issues, said that, I tried to reproduce to see if we need to impact any documentation and I had no issues installing Microsoft Teams Ps Module and the location in the error you shared is valid.
I would recommend checking for filtering issues or, if you still can not fix it, please open a support case directly from your tenant.
Thank you

@tumtum73 Please run $PSVersionTable and paste the output so we can take an additional look.

I also anticipate that there are issues with your PowerShellGet package provider. Can you follow instructions here to resolve the install-module problem.

Please report back so that we can resolve this issue if this fixes your problem.

FWIW: with the help of Microsoft Support I solved this by updating my .NET framework to the latest version (4.8)
