How to install NuGet in PowerShell on Windows 10?

I have acquired Windows 10 recently after working for years on Linux and would like to have PSReadLine completion module installed for that I first need to get NuGet which comes with VS Studio 2017. I installed VS Studio 2017 then opened PowerShell as admin and tried to install the module via Install-Module -Name PSReadLine but get:

WARNING: Unable to download from URI 'https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=627338&clcid=0x409' to ''.
WARNING: Unable to download the list of available providers. Check your internet connection.
PackageManagement\Install-PackageProvider : No match was found for the specified search criteria for the provider
'NuGet'. The package provider requires 'PackageManagement' and 'Provider' tags. Please check if the specified package
has the tags.
At C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\PowerShellGet\1.0.0.1\PSModule.psm1:7468 char:21
