Because you have Chef Client 14.x, you probably now need to blow away caches and update your windows cookbook to the latest. The latest windows cookbook doesn't even include that resource, as it is embedded in chef-client now. It's also possible your chef server may have cached a confused merge of two versions of that cookbook through berkshelf action too. See chef-boneyard/windows#564
