Can't install nvim using Powershell 7 #191

Whenever I try to install nvim, when using powershell 7, I get this error:

Administrator in ~
❯ bob install nightly
Apr 01 12:29:56.361 ERROR Error: Please make sure you are using Developer PowerShell/Command Prompt for VS

Is there any way to get this to work? If I select "Developer PowerShell for VS 2022" in Windows terminal and then run the command, it does work, but I want to use the new version of powershell.

Thats a bit odd... shouldn't happen at all unless you build neovim from source which you aren't in this instance.
Any steps to reproduce this? simply running windows terminal with powershell, also how exactly do i get the new ps version?

I can't really think of anything special I did to reproduce this but it happens on my work computer that doesnt have much on it, and my own PC. Let me know if you need logs etc

This is what I did:

winget install --id Microsoft.Powershell --source winget
