Get-WmiObject win32_operatingsystem | %{

  $_.ConverttoDateTime($_.lastbootuptime)

  }

'@

$machines = Get-Content .\CS_VM1.txt

Invoke-VMScript -VM $machines -ScriptText $Script -GuestUser "admin" -GuestPassword "password" |

Select @{N ='VM';E={$_.VM.Name}},

@{N='LastBootUpTime'; E={[DateTime]$_.ScriptOutput}},

@{N='Uptime';E={[math]::Round((New-TimeSpan -Start ([DateTime]$_.ScriptOutput) -End (Get-Date).Days + " Days " + (Get-Date).Hours + "Hours" + (Get-Date).Minutes + "Minutes"))}} | ft -auto

Try like this

$script = @'

Get-WmiObject win32_operatingsystem | %{

  $_.ConverttoDateTime($_.lastbootuptime)

  }

'@

$machines = Get-Content .\CS_VM1.txt

Invoke-VMScript -VM $machines -ScriptText $Script -GuestUser "admin" -GuestPassword "password" |

Select @{N ='VM';E={$_.VM.Name}},

@{N='LastBootUpTime'; E={[DateTime]$_.ScriptOutput}},

@{N='Uptime';E={

   $diff = New-TimeSpan -Start ([DateTime]$_.ScriptOutput) -End (Get-Date)

   "$($diff.Days) Days $($diff.Hours) Hours $($diff.Minutes) Minutes"

   }} |

ft -auto

LucD, Still Uptime shows blank without any error

Seems to work perfectly for me.

How are you running this?
Is the script returning anything for the VMs you specified in the .TXT file?

I was able to fix, there was typo error from my end. Thanks a lot for your help
