Using VMware.vimautomation to perform server reboots

Im having issues getting the VMware.VimAutomation.core module to work while trying to use a script to reboot some servers once a week in the night. Whenever trying to run the script it will return the error:

Connect-VIServer : Could not load file or assembly 'VMware.VimAutomation.Cis.Core.Interop, Version=12.5.0.4296,
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

I have verified that the file exists and is not blocked. If anybody has any ideas it'd be greatly appreciated.
