"Windows cannot find 'powershell.exe'." Error

Question

Used to have Adobe XD installed on my Windows 10 PC for the past few months until I had to use it again, and realized I couldn't find it in the task bar or start menu.

Upon opening Creative Cloud app, it says "install" rather than open, meaning it was removed without my knowledge and I had to redownload it.

The main issue comes from being unable to update or install it because of the screencapped error below.

Any ideas of how to fix this?
