New submission from Isaac Shabtay <is...@shabtay.com>:
Windows 10 Pro, v1803.
Created a directory: D:\Test
Created a symbolic link to it: C:\Test -> D:\Test
The current user has permissions to access the link, however os.stat() fails:
>>> os.stat('C:\\Test')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
PermissionError: [WinError 5] Access is denied: 'C:\\Test'
The only change in my system since this has last worked, is that I upgraded to
v1803 (used to be v1709 up until about a week ago).
