Unable to use cmdlets when -UseWindowsAuthentication is used for Set-VSTeamAccount

[ChrisGibson1982]

Steps to reproduce

Set-VSTeamAccount -Account $devOpsOrg -UseWindowsAuthentication
get-vsteam -ProjectName $myProjectName

Get-VSTeam: Cannot validate argument on parameter 'ProjectName'. The cmdlet cannot protect plain text secrets sent over unencrypted connections. To suppress this warning and send plain text secrets over unencrypted networks, reissue the command specifying the AllowUnencryptedAuthentication parameter

Expected behavior

Should return a list of projects

Actual behavior

Should return a list of projects, but almost every command comes up with the same error in PowerShell 7. Windows PowerShell just doesn't return anything

I see that you are using the module version TFS2017 for the API but you are saying you try to go against Azure DevOps Services. The parameter UseWindowsAuthentication is only working against on-premises installations of Azure DevOps or in this case TFS. It does not work with the SaaS solution.

So this is by design and not a bug. :-)
