I keep getting following error when trying to run invoke-vmscript on a vm

guest tools asre current

invoke-vmscript -scripttext {dir c:} -vm vmname -guestcredentials $creds

any idea?

I'm not sure if something went wrong in this post, but I can't see any errors.
How did you create the value in $creds?

Also, the ScripText parameter expects a String, not a ScriptBlock.
