Subject: [EXTERNAL] SET_REPARSE_POINT vs QUERY_DIRECTORY?

Hello dochelp!

Attached find a network trace against Windows 2016 server that creates a symlink and tries to query it via QUERY_DIRECTORY.

In frame 19 a symlink x->y is successfully created.

When listing the directory, frame 24 just shows FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE for "x". Only if "x" is closed in frame 29, the listing shows FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE | FILE_ATTRIBUTE_REPARSE_POINT in frame 34 as expected.

Question: Is this relevant, and where is this documented?

Thanks, Volker
