You're using windows::fs::symlink_file to create a symbolic link for a file on Windows. When you try to open and read the linked file using File::open(path) in Windows, it fails with an InvalidFilename error. However, the same operation succeeds in WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux). Is this a bug, or is there something wrong with my code?
