Join-Path

Join-Path fails if the path drive does not exist

The script Test-missing-drive.ps1 finds a missing drive and uses it in order to join paths by the .NET method Path.Combine() (works) and by PowerShell cmdlet Join-Path (fails).

Join-Path with UNC paths: mind the current provider

When Join-Path is used with UNC paths then the results may depend on the current provider. If it is accidentally not FileSystem then it may be a mistake. The script Test-mind-the-provider.ps1 shows the issue.
