Get-PSDrive doesn't correctly report the DisplayRoot property for mounted drive letters in 7.4.0-preview.4 #19903

@sba923

Description

@sba923

Prerequisites

Steps to reproduce

If a drive letter corresponds to a mounted network path, Get-PSDrive outputs an object whose DisplayRoot property corresponds to the network UNC path.

In 7.4.0-preview.4, the value of the property is System.Span<UInt16>[0] instead of the expected UNC path.

The behavior is correct in 7.3.5

Expected behavior

PS> (get-psdrive -Name s).DisplayRoot.ToString()
\\server\share

Actual behavior

PS> (get-psdrive -Name s).DisplayRoot.ToString()
System.Span<UInt16>[0]
