Within all that verbiage is a message (across several lines) that states:

"... cannot be loaded because the execution of scripts is disabled on this system. Please see "get-help about_signing" for more details"

This means that you need to set your PowerShell execution policy on your Hyper-V server. Execute the following:

Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned.
