ERROR: Drive root "P:\" does not exist or it's not a folder.

I am curious to know why I get this error every time I start PowerShell

Drive root "P:\" does not exist or it's not a folder.

I presume you don't have a P: drive mapped somewhere? Have you used P: in
the past and its not completely been removed.

Check you profile for any reference to P:

I was foolish. The P: drive existed but had not been formatted.
Formatted P: problem went away.

May I take this opportunity of saying what a friendly, knowledgeable and
disciplined forum the PowerShell group is.
