in file C:\Users\duhowett\AppData\Local\Temp\repro.format.ps1xml: The resource FileSystemProviderStrings in assembly C:\System.Management.Automation is not found.

The string C:\System.Management.Automation is very suspect.
The assembly is almost certainly loaded, as it provides many of the cmdlets in use here.
NOTE: On Linux, the missing assembly name is /System.Management.Automation
