PowerShell PackageManagement not found

I'm trying to avoid having to restore my PC and get it back to where I was. I was recently going to delete a folder using Shift+Del, but without paying too close attention I hit Shift+Del on the modules folder in C:\ProgramFiles\WindowsPowerShell\Modules.

I had re-imported PowerShellGet, PackageManagement, as well as Pester.

I thought I was in the clear but I keep running into issues, I have to always Re-Import PowershellGet. Then I get another error.

Get-PSRepository : The term 'PackageManagement\Get-PackageSource' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file.

Even after doing Import-PackageManagement I still get that error.

If I do (Get-Module -List Available -Name PackageManagement).Exportedcmdlets it shows that Get-PackageSource is there.

I'm really not sure what I need to do to fix this.

I have uninstalled and reintalled WMF 5.1, but the issue persists.

I am running Windows 8.1

The issue seems to be with PackageManagement, 1.1.4.0. I deleted that reimported PackageManagement based on what i read here. https://github.com/OneGet/oneget/issues/195

It seems to be working now.

PowerShell is an open source project. You can download the modules from github. That link also describes how to get from PowerShell Gallery, which may work for you.
