Value does not fall within the expected range powershell job creation - powershell

Question

I wrote some code on my Windows 7 administration machine, where it just worked fine. Now I want to run it from a console - commandline with administration access from a client machine on Windows 10.
The script throws the error when it tries to Register the task through the COM-Object of the Task-Scheduler:
Value does not fall within the expected range:
# Aufruf in der command line mit
# powershell.exe -file C:\Workspace\controlling-macros\TaskCreator.ps1
$path = "C:\Workspace\controlling-macros\FullWorkbookPathsMR.csv"
$csv = Import-CSV -Path $path -Delimiter ";" | % {
# The name of the scheduled task
[string]$TaskName = "$($_.reportsource) - $($_.reportname) - $($_.reportid)"
# The description of the task
[string]$TaskDescr = "Hello, it's you again! I am $($_.reportname) and I will get started, when Report ID $($_.reportid) is fired. Have a nice day!"
# The Task Action command
$TaskCommand0 = "cmd"
$TaskCommand1 = "`"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office14\EXCEL.EXE`""
# The Task Action command argument
$TaskArg = "/c C:\Windows\System32\taskkill.exe /F /IM EXCEL.EXE"
$TaskArg1 = "$($_.fullpath)"
# attach the Task Scheduler com object
$service = new-object -ComObject("Schedule.Service")
# connect to the local machine.

$service.Connect()
$rootFolder = $service.GetFolder("\")
$TaskDefinition = $service.NewTask(0)
$TaskDefinition.RegistrationInfo.Description = "$TaskDescr"
$TaskDefinition.Settings.Enabled = $true
$TaskDefinition.Settings.AllowDemandStart = $true
$triggers = $TaskDefinition.Triggers
#http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa383915(v=vs.85).aspx
$trigger = $triggers.Create(0) # Creates an "On an event" trigger
$trigger.Subscription = "<QueryList><Query Id='0'><Select Path='Application'>*[System[Provider[#Name='$($_.reportsource)'] and EventID='$($_.reportid)']]</Select></Query></QueryList>"
# "*[System[Provider[#Name='$reporttype'] and EventID=$reportid]]"
# http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa381841(v=vs.85).aspx
$Action = $TaskDefinition.Actions.Create(0)
$action.Path = "$TaskCommand0"
$action.Arguments = "$TaskArg"
$Action = $TaskDefinition.Actions.Create(0)
$action.Path = "$TaskCommand1"
$action.Arguments = "$TaskArg1"
#http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa381365(v=vs.85).aspx
$rootFolder.RegisterTaskDefinition("$TaskName", $TaskDefinition, 6, "System", $null, 5) # <<--- here the error occurs
Write-Host $($_.sequence) $($_.reportsource) $($_.reportname) $($_.reportid) $($_.fullpath) "task created successfully."
}
why no data is piped to the variables?

Answer 1

I know this seems basic but I would start by matching Powershell versions first as different versions of Powershell do compile some code differently as well as some cmdlets just do not work in older versions.

Answer 2

In new-scheduledtasksettingsset there is a compatibility switch (v1, vista, win7, win8).
