Can you show what a Get-TagAssignment produces as output?

With no While-clauses active?

.Tag.Name -like 'criticite_forte*' }

Do you also get that error when you just do a Get-TagAssignment without anything else?

[CG21]

Yes

Are you already using PowerCLI 10?

There were some Tag related issues fixed in 10.

[CG21]

I use PowerCLI 6.5 release1.

I did not succeed to download the version 10

[LucD]

What exactly is the download problem you have?
If you have at least one station with an Internet connection, you can use the Offline Install of PowerCLI to a Computer Without an Internet Connection from

Welcome PowerCLI to the PowerShell Gallery – Install Process Updates

As an alternative (at least when you are on Vsphere 6.5) you can use my rCisTag module.

It has the same Tag cmdlets, but uses the REST API, and doesn't have the known issues from earlier PowerCLI releases.
