Unable to validate Microsoft cluster

Question

I have Microsoft windows cluster. I have 2 nodes on windows 2008 R2 SP1 Ent. both of them with Windows PowerShell 4 and with up to date with Windows updates

When I'm trying to do a validation to this cluster I get this error:

Error: The action 'Validate This Cluster...' did not complete. There is an error in XML document (5, 73). Attempt by method 'Microsoft.Xml.Serialization.GeneratedAssembly.XmlSerializationReaderClusPrepConfig.Read4_Assemblies(Boolean, Boolean)' to access method 'MS.Internal.ServerClusters.Validation.TestAssemblyCollection.Add(MS.Internal.ServerClusters.Validation.TestAssembly)' failed.

Any idea?

Why are you building a new failover cluster with Windows Server 2008 R2? — joeqwerty, Jun 09 '16 at 11:40
I can't provide the results because the validation is not working. In addition we have an old cluster of win 2008 r2 and I just added a new node — dsaydon, Jun 10 '16 at 10:09

Open command prompt as administrator.
Type "powershell -version 2.0"
execute your Test-Cluster command.
