System.IO.DirectoryInfo
Creation with relative path
If a System.IO.DirectoyInfo object is created with a relative path, the object internally stores the path to the (potentially inexisting) directory that is constructed from the current directory and the relative path:
PS: 1 C:/Users/rene> [System.IO.DirectoryInfo] $x = '..'
PS: 2 C:/Users/rene> $x.FullName
C:\Users
PS: 3 C:/Users/rene> cd ..
PS: 4 C:/Users> $x.FullName
C:\Users
