Default subscription parameters Azure

I login with Login-AzureRmAccount

Get-AzureRmSubscription

SubscriptionName : Azure in Open
SubscriptionId : c3527a38-236e-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
TenantId : 371bbe31-3426-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
State : Enabled

Then I think I need to add a default subscription , however when I use :

Select-AzureSubscription -Default "Azure in Open"
Select-AzureSubscription : Parameter set cannot be resolved using the specified named parameters.
At line:1 char:1
+ Select-AzureSubscription -Default "Azure in Open"

Make sure you have your account active.
you can do a Get-AzureAccount to list your account and subscriptions. Add-AzureAccount to login to your account. I prefer the Add-AzureAccount method over importing azure settings profile. but the azure settings profile is technically better if you use the same account and want to always be logged in.
the Select-Azure Subscription -SubscriptionId [subscriptionId] should be in the list given from Get-AzureAccount

so when I use Get-AzureAccount nothingn returns, then :

Add-AzureAccount
Add-AzureAccount : The given key was not present in the dictionary.

log into the Azure Portal and make sure your account is active, and you are beyond the "welcome wizard" and all of the start stuff, make sure you have a subscription. If you do, then in powershell run

Remove-AzureAccount
Clear-AzureProfile
Add-AzureAccount

if you STILL have the problem after that reinstall Azure Powershell
