Cannot find drive. A drive with the name 'master' does not exist. - Error/resolution

Sometime back I saw someone  raise this error (in Sitecore Slack) and at that point, I didn't have an answer. Today, I came across this error in my Sitecore 10.3 instance. Unfortunately, I didn't see google offering any help either. I then noticed that the erroring instance was running on SPE 6.3 while the latest SPE is 6.4. Once I installed Sitecore PowerShell Extensions 6.4, the below error was gone and I could execute SPE commands.

Erroring instance:

Good instance:


SPE Command successful:
