Win10 VM - $RECYCLE.BIN and desktop.ini


Recommended Posts

Not sure if this is a Windows thing or an Unraid thing:

 

Created a small 80GB Win10 VM, created a share for Windows data storage, created map drive Z: for that share, redirecting user folders to that mapped drive (eg. change location of c:/users/user/documents to z:/users/user/documents).  But each redirect user folder now has a visible "$RECYCLE.BIN" and "desktop.ini" in every folder.  This doesn't happen when redirecting local user folders (or is usually hidden files) but it's visible in this mapped drive.  Any ideas?
