I'm having some trouble understanding what is wrong.
I'm using Windows Powershell Version: 5.1.18362.628
I expected 'Magick.NET-Q8-AnyCPU' to install.

I have come across https://stackoverflow.com/a/43345128/2724376
This indicated to me that NuGet might be updated when I had installed Powershell 7
The solution for me is to specify the nuget v2 API instead of the now default of v3.
if($PSVersionTable.'PSVersion'.Major -eq 5) {
Install-Package -Name "Magick.NET-Q8-AnyCPU" -Source "https://www.nuget.org/api/v2"
} else {
Install-Package -ProviderName "NuGet" -Name "Magick.NET-Q8-AnyCPU"
}
