vscode-powershell: Conflict with the .Net dll of the Az module

If I run with extension enabled this code (and a lot of others Az commands): Connect-AzAccount I receive the following error:

Connect-AzAccount: The 'Connect-AzAccount' command was found in the module 'Az.Accounts', but the module could not be loaded. For more information, run 'Import-Module Az.Accounts'.

Running the same code without the extension works perfectly. I guess this extension reference some .NET libraries that goes in conflict with the .NET libraries used in Az.Accounts module

Here the modules i have installed:

Issue Description

I am experiencing a problem running Az module commands within VS Code powershell terminal

Expected Behaviour

Running the command Connect-AzAccount the message with code number and azure authentication procedure should appear

Actual Behaviour

This error appears

Connect-AzAccount: The 'Connect-AzAccount' command was found in the module 'Az.Accounts', but the module could not be loaded. For more information, run 'Import-Module Az.Accounts'.

@SeeminglyScience I can do even more 😃

> Import-Module Az.Accounts
>  $Error[0].Exception | fl * -force
