    Add "cmd /c" at the beginning of your command:

    Sys.OleObject("WScript.Shell").Run("cmd /c iisreset MyComputer > C:\\MyFolder\\iisRestarted.txt");

    Output redirection is a feature of the command shell (cmd.exe), so you need to run your command via cmd.

     

    Also make sure you run TestComplete as administrator, as required by iisreset.
