Description
When attempting to run PowerShell commands on Cloud Connectors, cmdlets may fail with the following error message:
- Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately. The system cannot find the file specified. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070002).

Resolution
Install the Remote PowerShell SDK on another device then run cmdlets on that device.
Problem Cause
Citrix recommends not running PowerShell cmdlets on Cloud Connectors. A recent change in the Cloud Connectors prevents the Broker and Central Configuration Service cmdlets from being run on Connectors.
