   - Added examples (issue #633)
     - 1-EnableAlwaysOn.ps1
     - 2-DisableAlwaysOn.ps1
+  - Casting the result of the property IsHadrEnabled to [System.Boolean] so that
+    $null is never returned, which resulted in an exception ([issue #763](https://github.com/PowerShell/xFailOverCluster/issues/763)).
 - Changes to xSQLServerScript
   - Fixed PS Script Analyzer errors ([issue #728](https://github.com/PowerShell/xSQLServer/issues/728))
 - Changes to xSQLServerSetup
