   Nope.   
      
   As mentioned, I can redirect output to "\\?\Volume{guid}\bla.txt"*. But I   
   can't, using the same filespec, do a "del" on that file afterwards.   
      
   * and yes, the file is created in the root of the drive, as a "dir \bla.txt"   
   shows.   
      
   So yes, an "\\?\Volume{guid}\" specifies the drive itself.   
      
   ... but not always.  And *thats* the problem.   
      
   Any idea why and/or how to fix that ?
