What steps will reproduce the bug?

~\repos\clipboard-sync v0.16.2 ❯ volta run --node 20 node --eval 'console.log(require("fs").readdirSync("S:\\\\"))'  20:09:08 
[ 'FELIPE-DESKTOP.is-receiving.txt' ]

~\repos\clipboard-sync v0.16.2 ❯ volta run --node 22 node --eval 'console.log(require("fs").readdirSync("S:\\\\"))'  20:09:58 
node:fs:1584
  const result = binding.readdir(
                         ^

}

Node.js v22.15.0

How often does it reproduce? Is there a required condition?

Always.

What is the expected behavior? Why is that the expected behavior?

To work, like it always used to.

What do you see instead?

ENOENT.

Additional information

I noticed this when upgraded my application from Electron 34 to 35, which also upgraded Node from 20 to 22. Maybe this is related to:

• try catch not work if path include unicode #51802

Whatever was done there may have broken other cases.

I think it might have been another regression from #52135 cc @nodejs/platform-windows @anonrig
