I was wondering about using projfs for windows mounting? What would be the pros and cons vs the current implementation that uses WinFsp. I was able to get a proof of concept using projfs so i know it works but not sure what issues might arise from using it.
hi,
you created a rclone mount command that use projfs?
that would great but not seeing how that would get integrated into rclone.
as you might know already:
- for mounting, rclone uses a cross-platform FUSE. which works on windows, linux, and macos
so all rclone has to do is support FUSE - projs most likely does not support the go language, requiring unpleasant usage of CGO
Yes i have it working. I just like the thought of not having to install a third party tool to be able to mount. Sure its a windows feature but i feel that lowers the bar of entry for it.
that sounds nice.
tho, i cannot remember a topic where the issue was winfsp refusing to install or work?
what is the killer feature offered by profs that rclone cannot emulate?
I just know at my work there would be zero chance of getting winscp installed but they would probably enable the projfs windows feature if asked. rclone is on the approved software list 
one way around the FUSE versus projfs is to use neither.
instead os native os mount support.
on windows, net use can mount webdav servers
with rclone, rclone serve webdav
