   You can "md" and "rd" folders .  You can create a file thru redirection and   
   thru redirection also read from it.   
      
   "dir", "del" and "attrib" (the other few that I have tested) throw an error.   
      
   In a program using a volume guid as argument to FindFirstFile (kernel32)   
   works.   
      
   Yep, its a bit of a mess.
