xpath event filter not working - xpath

Question

I am attempting to create a XPath Event Filter to Execute a scheduled task upon completion of another one. My XPath looks like this
<QueryList>
<Query Id="0" Path="Microsoft-Windows-TaskScheduler/Operational">
<Select Path="Microsoft-Windows-TaskScheduler/Operational">
*[System[Provider[#Name='Microsoft-Windows-TaskScheduler'] and Task = 102 and (EventID=102)]]
</Select>
<Select Path="Microsoft-Windows-TaskScheduler/Operational">
*[EventData[Data[#Name=’TaskName’] and (Data=’\Visual Studio Dark Theme′)]]
</Select>
<Select Path="OAlerts">
*[System[Provider[#Name='Microsoft-Windows-TaskScheduler'] and Task = 102 and (EventID=102)]]
</Select>
</Query>
</QueryList>
The Event I am trying to find is this one.
<Event xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/win/2004/08/events/event">
<System>
<Provider Name="Microsoft-Windows-TaskScheduler" Guid="{DE7B24EA-73C8-4A09-985D-5BDADCFA9017}" />
<EventID>102</EventID>
<Version>0</Version>
<Level>4</Level>
<Task>102</Task>
<Opcode>2</Opcode>
<Keywords>0x8000000000000001</Keywords>
<TimeCreated SystemTime="2016-07-20T16:14:08.280937900Z" />
<EventRecordID>13055</EventRecordID>
<Correlation ActivityID="{0A2EAFD2-B40E-4C60-A099-80C020CBA547}" />
<Execution ProcessID="1164" ThreadID="6464" />
<Channel>Microsoft-Windows-TaskScheduler/Operational</Channel>
<Computer>GXLT012660.CoyoteLogistics.local</Computer>
<Security UserID="S-1-5-18" />
</System>
<EventData Name="TaskSuccessEvent">
<Data Name="TaskName">\Visual Studio Dark Theme</Data>
<Data Name="UserContext">COYOTELOGISTICS\benjamin.drolet</Data>
<Data Name="InstanceId">{0A2EAFD2-B40E-4C60-A099-80C020CBA547}</Data>
</EventData>
</Event>
Whenever Creating a custom filter on Event Viewer with the XPath query above, I get the following error.
One of more logs in the query have errors.
Log: Microsoft-Windows-TaskScheduler/Operational
Error: The specified query is invalid.

This is rather old, so I hope you have found the answer since then, but I encountered the same problem.
What I found is that I used the wrong kind of single quotes in the query, hardly distinguishable in the editor, but when I see in your question *[EventData[Data[#Name=’TaskName’] and (Data=’\Visual Studio Dark Theme′)]], I suspect the issue is the same.
Try *[EventData[Data[#Name='TaskName'] and (Data='\Visual Studio Dark Theme')]]
