Hi I'am being developpe a drive virtual disk file system.
When I call API definedosdevice on my name device , it's OK, it works
for a drive letter
I can see virtual files and virtual directory. I'am try with the command
IOCTL FSCTL_SET_REPARSE_POINT to make a link empty directory on my
virtual disk containing some virtual files installed
with DeviceType = FILE_DEVICE_DISK_FILE_SYSTEM
and devicecharacteristics = FILE_DEVICE_IS_MOUNTED ,
it's ok for command IOCTL FSCTL_SET_REPARSE_POINT. Problem : it's don't
work when click directory linked to my disk containing virtual files.
explorer.exe show my error "The data present in the reparse point buffer
is invalid". Can you help please ? In this forum I have already attached
the party source code on the thread "Blue screen on API
CreateFileMapping: A thread tried to release a resource it Did No" Thank
you better.

Here is my source code for make link of directory c:\vol to target :
