Vagrant cannot be started on Windows 7 64 bits requires version upgrades

Question

I downloaded vagrant for Windows at this link https://www.vagrantup.com/downloads

I have just installed Vagrant on Windows 7 64 bit. When I type vagrant up to start it, it displays the following error below at command prompt. How do I upgrade from version 2 to 3

C:\hhvm-vagrant>vagrant up

Vagrant failed to initialize at a very early stage:

The version of powershell currently installed on this host is less than the required minimum version. Please upgrade the installed version of powershell to the minimum required version and run the command again.

Installed version: 2

Minimum required version: 3

If you update the powershell version to 3.0, the problem will be resolved.
