    You can't use ConvertTo-Html on a plain txt file.  It only takes objects.

    You do not need to save everything in files.  Just use them in memory.

    I suggest that you should learn PowerShell before trying to do advanced things.

    $body = '<pre>' + (Get-content -Path C:\Reports\WSUSWarning.txt -Raw) + '</pre>'

    You should not be using Write-Warning for this.

    Wrap the text in "pre" tags and it will stay formatted when displayed as HTML.
