When I run this I get an error when trying to save the configuration :Cannot find an overload for "SetInfo" and the argument count: "0".

Hello Ed,

It looks like the issue occurs because of the PowerShell version. To check the version of PowerShell you are using, execute the following script:

PowerShell
$PSVersionTable

If you are using version 5.0, you need to update PowerShell to remedy the issue. Alternatively, please provide us with the PowerShell version you are currently using.
