Hi Sergey,
When I executed this statement
window.requestFileSystem(LocalFileSystem.PERSISTENT, 0,function(fileSystem) {},
function(error){}) in windows phone 8.x, it gave me the access to
ms-appx://local. I gave an alert to display the output of .toURL() method, it
displays "ms-appx/://local" in sideloading and ms-appdata://local in WP8.1
(private data directory), as mentioned here at
:https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-file#windows-file-system-layout.
But When I read windows phone 8.x site at
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/hh464936.aspx, it is said
that "removableStorage" capability has to be added to AppManifest.xml to get
permission to storage system. But when I did it, it did not work.
By your answer, do you mean that right now one can not access the storage at
the present moment in WP8.1 ? Please advice.

> LocalFileSystem.PERSISTENT does not detect file system storage

> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Sam Deepak
> Labels: triaged, windows
>
> The call to window.requestFileSystem(LocalFileSystem.PERSISTENT, 0,
> function() {}); does not detect the root storage location in windows phone
> 8.x. Rather it points to private data directory,even after adding the
> capability for accessing the local file system (removableStorage) in
> AppManifest.xml.
> Basically window.requestFileSystem(LocalFileSystem.PERSISTENT,
> 0,function(fileSystem) {}, function(error){}) gives me only "ms-appx://local"
> path which is actually the private data directory for an app in windows
> phone. I want to access the root directory of the file system because I am
> letting the user to store app specific files anywhere in the phone. (It works
> in Android without specifying anything)
> Basically the above LocalFileSystem.PERSISTENT should not point to private
> data directory, rather it should be the root directory of the local file
> system.
