with PowerShell 5.1 it gets following error:

Invoke-Koan : Cannot find drive. A drive with the name 'TEMP' does not exist.

Instead, it could use New-TemporaryFile cmdlet. That should work both in PowerShell 5.1 and 7.x

Alternatively, the TEMP: PSDrive should be created, when not existing...

Ah, good catch. I think given the intention of the topic, checking for and creating the TEMP: drive if need be would be preferable.
