It's very simple. Tee-object has no -Append in PS 2.0. Even, MSDN page mentions this cmdlet as of PS 3.0: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh849937(v=wps.640).aspx

Then what would be the solution to run it on PowerShell 2.o ?

Change the code so that append will not be necessary, or use other cmdlet
