I asked a question earlier on SO

Windows 11 - PowerShell command Get-ADGroupMember throws error

And it has been closed because it was deemed a duplicate of this question:

Import-Module : The specified module 'activedirectory' was not loaded because no valid module file was found in any module directory

How those questions can be classed as duplicates? My question is very specific to Windows 11 and the other question talks about Windows Server 2008 SP2.

Completely 2 worlds apart and I have managed to fix the issue I was having and the solution looks nothing like it has been suggested in the "Duplicate" question.

Can my question be reopened so I can share my solution with users?

    The comments are still ongoing under the post... it seems very premature to post this. Commented 2 days ago

    Since you did not want to wait for feedback (deleted original and re-posted exactly the same to shake comments/votes/duplicate), can you please confirm that you are actually interested in an answer? I feel that this meta question should be closed as "This question does not appear to seek input and discussion from the community." Commented 2 days ago

    Please do not delete and repost a question. If your question is closed, please use the edit feature and send your question to the review queue. Alternatively, you can ask a constructive question here, on Meta. Also, as your original question was unilaterally closed by a gold badger, you can also ping that voter in the comments; after you address why the post is not a duplicate would be an appropriate time to do so. Many gold badgers are more than happy to revisit a question that closed unilaterally and reopen it (unilaterally) as well, should you adequately evidence the difference. Commented 2 days ago

    Try not to evaluate closure justness on "question identicality", this often leads to unresolvable arguments about snowflakes and edge cases. Instead, interpret the close reason to mean "Resolved Elsewhere" - this affords uniquely asked questions to be pooled together and point readers to a canonical that provides the necessary insights to resolve multiple questions on the same narrow topic. (I'm not an SME in the context of the pages in this asked question and didn't bother to compare them personally.) Commented 2 days ago
  • God I wish it was called "resolved somewhere else", that describes the process of duplicate closure so much better. Commented 2 days ago
  • The answers showing Add-WindowsFeature work to solve the issue in Windows 11. If the question was "How to install RSAT through the GUI in Windows 11", is that even considered a programming question? Does it belong in Stack Overflow or Superuser / Server fault / other? Commented yesterday
