Read-S3Object error: "Could not load type 'Amazon.S3.ChecksumMode' from assembly 'AWSSDK.S3, Version=3.3.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=xxxx'."

Hi,

We've been using AWSPowershell module to download files from a Wasabi bucket. On some devices, we've gotten an error when calling "Read-S3Object":

Could not load type 'Amazon.S3.ChecksumMode' from assembly 'AWSSDK.S3, Version=3.3.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=xxxx'.

On one device with this issue, I also tried running "Get-S3Object" and it errored with:

Get-S3Object : Method not found: 'Amazon.Runtime.IAWSTokenProvider Amazon.Runtime.ClientConfig.get_AWSTokenProvider()'.

It's only some computers with these issues and I can't seem to find the smoking gun, whether it's a bug or if there's some common dependency that's missing.

Anyone have any insight what could be causing that?

Thanks!

Bump?

I've tried uninstall the PS module and reinstalling, I've tried updating .NET and C++ redistributables, I've tried disabling security tools, I've tried a ton of things and I can't seem to fix the issue once it's starts on a device.

@ghost Kindly try uninstalling AWS Tools module and re-install them. You may use -Cleanup parameter of Install-AWSToolsModule.
