file specified."
InvalidOperation: You cannot call a method on a null-valued expression.
WARNING: Try #1 of .NET framework install failed with exit code ''. Trying again.

Additional Context

The problem is that the process start cannot find the installer executable. This seems to be caused by the change of the default value of UseShellExecute of True in PowerShell 5 to False in PowerShell 7. I would suggest setting UseShellExecute explicitly to True.
