      Microsoft is all about SMB. Why would they bother with WebDAV and even NFS?

        Security. And I didn't mention NFS. Also I feel webdav is more open standards than SMB.

              Are they REALLY all about SMB? They've supported WebDAV for like 15 years and NFS for more than 20. MS is pretty dedicated to options. They also support SFTP drive mounting.

                  Also Linux supports like dozen of protocols, why they are allowed to support only one properly ?

                    If anyone is "all about" SMB, it's Apple who actually killed off their own protocol AND went through the effort of ripping out and disabling NFS so that only SMB would remain when Microsoft has put in a lot of effort to make sure that NFS and WebDAV are available.

                    (Apples does support WebDAV too, I realize.)

                      Isn't WebDAV and NFS supported for compatibility reasons nowadays?

                      SFTP support without the need for chocolatey or linux subsystem for Windows?

                        Microsoft can support different protocols if they want too. But would they?

                            Chocolatey is the official deployment method for some Windows components. RHEL doesn't support SFTP without the equivalent. SFTP support is full from Microsoft.

                              Windows Subsystem for Linux does not provide anything to Windows. No one means WSL when the day Windows does something. WSL is a VM. It's different from windows.

                                  MS really isn't that bad about stuff. They have their faults, but by and large they are a pretty good vendor. Expensive, but they aren't all that bad.

                                    Maybe Webdav doesn't swing that way and doesn't want to be mounted!!!

                                          Are we talking about WebDAV or me now?

                                            Thanks for this, I never saw anything like it from before. Even the format seems very far from windows variables.

                                            I tried it quickly but failed, I will still try again.

                                            after some researching it seems this file does all the magic: "MRXDAV.SYS" which I found in my win 10 but also found this entry:
