Workaround is:

$global:error[0].<tab>

Did some debugging, command completion finds another variable named Error in a lower scope which is empty so nothing to tab complete. Still investigating.

@powercode Could you please confirm that the Issue was fixed in #7231?

@SteveL-MSFT @adityapatwardhan Make sense to add explicit test for the case to avoid a regression?

On master branch, tab completion appears to work. @iSazonov I agree we should add some tests.

Does this also resolve #7828, @SteveL-MSFT ?
