There are many existing issues, even on Intel laptops - PowerShell/PowerShell#11216

This is a duplicate of #26. The openssl at /opt/homebrew is the ARM library which is not usable by x64 pwsh/omi (you cannot combine them both). To solve this you need to

  • Install the x64 Homebrew which resides in /usr/local
  • Use that to install an x64 version of OpenSSL
  • Ensure brew for x64 is first in the PATH when you are running `pwsh
  • Run Install-WSMan

This is not ideal and I'm hoping to make this a bit better which is why I opened #26.
