Environment data

PS Version: 5.1.20348.2849
PS HostName: ConsoleHost
PSReadLine Version: 2.4.1-beta1
PSReadLine EditMode: Windows
OS: 10.0.20348.1 (WinBuild.160101.0800)

Steps to reproduce

Try to autocomplete a dotnet type after importing the SharePointServer PowerShell module.
Applies both to tab completion and selection using Ctrl + Space.

1. Start a new PowerShell session
2. Test type autocomplete by for example typing [date and then pressing Ctrl + Space
3. Auto complete suggestions come up.
4. Import module with Import-Module SharePointServer
5. Test autocomplete with [date and then pressing Ctrl + Space

Expected behavior

Autocomplete should work both before and after importing the SharePointServer module.

Actual behavior

After the module import, autocomplete is broken for dotnet objects.
More specifically the function to complete types names is broken.
Autocomplete for Cmdlets and methods of types is working, but type name is not.

• Typing Get-Mo and pressing Ctrl + Space gives options to complete.
• Typing [datetime] and pressing Ctrl + Space gives method suggestions.
• Typing [date and pressing Ctrl + Space (or pressing just Tab) gives no results.

Additonal info:
While PSReadline itself does not seem to generate a visible exception, there is some exceptions generated in VSCode with the PowerShell extension, so I'm adding it here if possibly relevant.
But the reproduction steps has been run directly in PowerShell outside of VSCode.

Which version & edition of SharePoint Server - please include information about what patches have been applied to the environment too

[JMyklebust]

This is on Sharepoint Server Subscription Edition currently running cumulative patch of April 2025 (KB5002705).
It's running as a single server system, and it's installed on Windows Server 2022 also running with the April 2025 Windows patches.

This environment has a test and prod server that have matching configurations for the most part, so the issue is existing 2 two different machines.

@JMyklebust Can you run TabExpansion2 -inputScript '[date' -cursorColumn 5 after importing SharePointServer module and share the results?

[JMyklebust]

This is the result.

PS> TabExpansion2 -inputScript '[date' -cursorColumn 5

Exception calling "CompleteInput" with "3" argument(s): "Unable to load one or more of the requested types. Retrieve the LoaderExceptions property for more information."

Side note; I'm away from work for 2 weeks now so can't really reply in a prompt manner in that time.
Technically I'm already off work but figured I could test this now while I had a chance.

Thanks @JMyklebust! When you get a chance, can you please run it again and share the information exposed by the LoaderExceptions property?

[JMyklebust]

Now I'm back and can give feedback.
This is the content of LoaderExceptions:
