MicrosoftThe issue is likely happening because of old PowerShell dependencies that are built-in to the old OS.
I suggest you try to upgrade to WMF 5.1 which will also upgrade the problematic PowerShell components - https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=54616&lc=1033
Note: It may still throw a few errors on Windows Server 2012R2 even with WMF 5.1 is installed, but its main functionality should work, and it should produce a valid result file.
