@scottalanmiller Again, this does you likely no good, as the admin session likely has nothing mapped in the first place. but it does run as it should.

I don't see where you ran this..
Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_LogicalDisk -Filter "DriveType=4" | ForEach-Object { Write-Host ("{0} {1}" -f ($_.DeviceID), ($_.ProviderName)) } -

I copied it right from this thread and ran it.
First without the foreach and then the full command.

@JaredBusch and @scottalanmiller and this is where my original comment came in about admin account. Most RMM tools run under elevated privileges and, therefore, return no data as they're not running under the user context. One could, however, likely do a "Start-Process powershell.exe -Credential "domain\user"" before the wmic command but it gets awfully complicated at that point.

Yes, you are right, but I was just correcting the statement that it would not run from ScreenConnect.

@jaredbusch, totally understood. I wasn't claiming otherwise. I just wanted to vocalize it for others who jump into the thread.
Thanks for the verification. -

I've not used that before. I use @powershell and that normally works but did not work here.

That is the proper way to run powershell from ScreenConnect.
So what you were doing was launch powershell from a command prompt session.
Doing
@powershell, you probably need to handle escaping quotes or something is all. -
