To mitigate this issue, you can selectively enable or disable the evaluation of these types of symbolic links: Local Link to a Local Target Local Link to a Remote Target Remote Link to Remote Target Remote Link to Local Target For further information please refer to the Windows Help section NOTE: If this policy is Disabled or Not Configured, local administrators may select the types of symbolic links to be evaluated. Selectively allow the evaluation of a symbolic link Do not allow compression on all NTFS volumes Compression can add to the processing overhead of filesystem operations. Enabling this setting will prevent access to and creation of compressed files. Do not allow encryption on all NTFS volumes Encryption can add to the processing overhead of filesystem operations. Enabling this setting will prevent access to and creation of encrypted files Enable NTFS pagefile encryption Encrypting the page file prevents malicious users from reading data that has been paged to disk, but also adds processing overhead for filesystem operations. Enabling this setting will cause the page files to be encrypted. Short name creation options These settings provide control over whether or not short names are generated during file creation. Some applications require short names for compatibility, but short names have a negative performance impact on the system. If you enable short names on all volumes then short names will always be generated. If you disable them on all volumes then they will never be generated. If you set short name creation to be configurable on a per volume basis then an on-disk flag will determine whether or not short names are created on a given volume. If you disable short name creation on all data volumes then short names will only be generated for files created on the system volume. Enable on all volumes Disable on all volumes Enable / disable on a per volume basis Disable on all data volumes Disable delete notifications on all volumes Delete notification is a feature that notifies the underlying storage device of clusters that are freed due to a file delete operation. A value of 0, the default, will enable delete notifications for all volumes. A value of 1 will disable delete notifications for all volumes. Enable / disable TXF deprecated features TXF deprecated features included savepoints, secondary RM, miniversion and roll forward. Please enable it if you want to use the APIs.
