## [7.6.0-preview.4]
4+
5+
### Breaking Changes
6+
7+
- Fix `WildcardPattern.Escape` to escape lone backticks correctly (#25211) (Thanks @ArmaanMcleod!)
8+
- Convert `-ChildPath` parameter to `string[]` for `Join-Path` cmdlet (#24677) (Thanks @ArmaanMcleod!)
9+
10+
PowerShell 7.6-preview.4 includes the following updated modules:
11+
12+
- **Microsoft.PowerShell.ThreadJob** v2.2.0
13+
- **ThreadJob** v2.1.0
14+
The **ThreadJob** module was renamed to **Microsoft.PowerShell.ThreadJob**. There is no difference
15+
in the functionality of the module. To ensure backward compatibility for scripts that use the old
16+
name, the **ThreadJob** v2.1.0 module is a proxy module that points to the
17+
**Microsoft.PowerShell.ThreadJob** v2.2.0.
