The information in this specification is applicable to the following Microsoft products or supplemental software. References to product versions include updates to those products.

The terms "earlier" and "later", when used with a product version, refer to either all preceding versions or all subsequent versions, respectively. The term "through" refers to the inclusive range of versions. Applicable Microsoft products are listed chronologically in this section.

Windows Client

§ Windows 2000 Professional operating system

§ Windows XP operating system

§ Windows Vista operating system

§ Windows 7 operating system

§ Windows 8 operating system

§ Windows 8.1 operating system

§ Windows 10 operating system

§ Windows 11 operating system

Windows Server

Exceptions, if any, are noted in this section. If an update version, service pack or Knowledge Base (KB) number appears with a product name, the behavior changed in that update. The new behavior also applies to subsequent updates unless otherwise specified. If a product edition appears with the product version, behavior is different in that product edition.

Unless otherwise specified, any statement of optional behavior in this specification that is prescribed using the terms "SHOULD" or "SHOULD NOT" implies product behavior in accordance with the SHOULD or SHOULD NOT prescription. Unless otherwise specified, the term "MAY" implies that the product does not follow the prescription.

<1> Section 2.1.1.1: Hard links are supported on NTFS volumes, UDFS volumes, and ReFS volumes formatted version 3.5 or later (Windows Server 2022 and later).

<2> Section 2.1.1.1: NTFS uses a default cluster size of 4 KB, a maximum cluster size of 64 KB on Windows 10 v1703 operating system and earlier and Windows Server 2016 and earlier, and 2 MB on Windows 10 v1709 operating system and later and Windows Server 2019 and later, and a minimum cluster size of 512 bytes. ReFS in Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012 operating system and Windows Server 2012 R2 use a fixed cluster size of 64 KB. ReFS in Windows 10 and later and Windows Server 2016 and later use a default cluster size of 4 KB. ReFS also supports a 64-KB cluster size.

<3> Section 2.1.1.1: For AMD64, x86, and ARM systems, this value is 4 KB. For ia64 systems, this value is 8 KB.

<4> Section 2.1.1.1: In NTFS, the CompressionUnitSize is 64 KB for encrypted files, 64 KB for sparse files, and the lesser of 64 KB or (16 * ClusterSize) for compressed files. Other file systems do not implement this field.

<5> Section 2.1.1.1: In NTFS, the CompressedChunkSize is 4 KB. Other Windows file systems do not implement this field.

<6> Section 2.1.1.1: Only ReFS supports integrity.

<7> Section 2.1.1.1: Only NTFS supports quotas.

<8> Section 2.1.1.1: This field is present for compatibility with the file level FileObjectIdInformation structure ([MS-FSCC] section 2.4.35). These fields are not currently used by Windows and always contain zeroes.

<9> Section 2.1.1.1: The USN journal is supported on ReFS all versions and NTFS version 3.0 volumes or greater. The USN journal is active by default on Windows Vista and later. The USN journal is not active by default on Windows-based servers.

<10> Section 2.1.1.1: For Windows 2000 operating system, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008 R2, the maximum file size of a file on an NTFS volume is the smaller of (232 – 1) * cluster size, and 16 terabytes (TB). For Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012, the maximum file size of a file on an NTFS volume is (232 – 1) * cluster size. For Windows 8.1 and later the maximum file size of a file on an NTFS volume is (((232 * cluster size) – 64K). For example, if the cluster size is 512 bytes, the maximum file size is 2 TB.

<11> Section 2.1.1.2: ReFS does not implement the TunnelCache.

<12> Section 2.1.1.3:  Only NTFS supports view index files.

<13> Section 2.1.1.3: ReFS and exFAT do not implement ShortNames.

<14> Section 2.1.1.3: The following table defines the support of file time stamps across various Windows file systems. More information can be found in section 6 of the File System Behavior Overview document [FSBO].

<17> Section 2.1.1.3: In Windows Vista and later, LastAccessTime updates are disabled by default in the ReFS and NTFS file systems. It is only updated when the file is closed. This behavior is controlled by the following registry values (respectively): HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem\RefsDisableLastAccessUpdate, and HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem\NtfsDisableLastAccessUpdate. A value of 1 means LastAccessTime updates are disabled. Any other value (or undefined) means they are enabled.

In Windows 10 v1803 operating system and later, NTFS has two registry values controlling LastAccessTime updates: HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem\NtfsDisableLastAccessUpdate and HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem\ NtfsLastAccessUpdatePolicyVolumeSizeThreshold. The NtfsDisableLastAccessUpdate value is now treated as a bitfield as follows:

Value

Meaning

0x00000001

Disable LastAccessTime updates.

0x00000002

System managed. Indicates that NTFS uses its own policy for updating LastAccessTime as follows:

On client systems, LastAccessTime updates are enabled if any of the following conditions are true:

  • NtfsLastAccessUpdatePolicyVolumeSizeThreshold is 0.

  • The size of the boot volume is <= NtfsLastAccessUpdatePolicyVolumeSizeThreshold in GB.

  • NtfsLastAccessUpdatePolicyVolumeSizeThreshold is undefined and (earlier than Windows 10 v2004 operating system) the size of the boot volume is <= 128GB.

On server systems, or client systems where the above conditions do not apply, LastAccessTime updates are always disabled.

At system startup, after evaluating the above policy, NTFS will set/clear flag 0x00000001 accordingly to reflect that LastAccessTime updates are disabled/enabled.

0x80000000

Flags initialized. Indicates NTFS recognizes flags other than 0x00000001. At system startup, if flag 0x80000000 is not set, the system will automatically set flag 0x80000000 and will additionally set flag 0x00000002 (becoming system managed) if flag 0x00000001 was set.

If the value of NtfsDisableLastAccessUpdate is controlled by group policy, then only flag 0x00000001 is recognized.

<42> Section 2.1.4.12:  Windows 2000 through Windows Server 2008 R2 do not perform any of the following checks because PARENT_OBJECT is never set in the Flags field so you will always take the ELSE statement to the SWITCH statement.

Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 will perform the following checks before the Switch(Operation) statement:

  • If Flags contains PARENT_OBJECT:

    • If Operation is OPEN, as specified in section 2.1.5.1, or

      Operation is FLUSH_DATA, as specified in section 2.1.5.6, or

      Operation is CLOSE, as specified in section 2.1.5.4, or

      Operation is SET_INFORMATION, as specified in section 2.1.5.14, and OpParams.FileInformationClass is one of FileBasicInformation or FileAllocationInformation or FileEndOfFileInformation or FileRenameInformation or FileLinkInformation or FileShortNameInformation or FileValidDataLengthInformation.

      • Set BreakCacheState to (READ_CACHING|WRITE_CACHING).

  • Else:

    • Switch (Operation):

<43> Section 2.1.4.17:  File systems may choose to defer processing for a file that has been modified to a later time, favoring performance over accuracy. The NTFS file system on versions earlier than Windows 10 v1809 operating system and non-NTFS file systems on all versions of Windows, defer this processing until the Open gets closed.

<44> Section 2.1.4.19:  File systems may choose to defer processing for a file that has been accessed to a later time, favoring performance over accuracy. The NTFS file system on versions earlier than Windows 10 v1809 and non-NTFS file systems on all versions of Windows, defer this processing until the Open gets closed.

<45> Section 2.1.5.1:  NTFS and ReFS recognize the following complex name suffixes:

§ ":$I30"

§ "::$INDEX_ALLOCATION"

§ ":$I30:$INDEX_ALLOCATION"

§ "::$BITMAP"

§ ":$I30:$BITMAP"

§ "::$ATTRIBUTE_LIST"

§ "::$REPARSE_POINT"

Other Windows file systems do not recognize any complex name suffixes.

<46> Section 2.1.5.1: NTFS and ReFS recognize the following stream type names:

  • "$STANDARD_INFORMATION"

  • "$ATTRIBUTE_LIST"

  • "$FILE_NAME"

  • "$OBJECT_ID"

  • "$SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR"

  • "$VOLUME_NAME"

  • "$VOLUME_INFORMATION"

  • "$DATA"

  • "$INDEX_ROOT"

  • "$INDEX_ALLOCATION"

  • "$BITMAP"

  • "$REPARSE_POINT"

  • "$EA_INFORMATION"

  • "$EA"

  • "$LOGGED_UTILITY_STREAM"

Other Windows file systems do not recognize any stream type names.

<47> Section 2.1.5.1:  Only the NTFS and ReFS file systems support complex name suffixes and StreamTypeNames. File systems that do not support this return STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_INVALID.

<48> Section 2.1.5.1.1: For the NTFS file system, the FileId128 consists of a 48-bit index into the MFT (the low 48 bits) and a 16-bit sequence number (the next higher 16 bits), with the high 64 bits unused and always equal to 0. For the ReFS file system, the FileId128 consists of a 64-bit index uniquely identifying the file's parent directory on the volume (the low 64 bits) and a 64-bit index uniquely identifying the file within that directory (the high 64 bits).

<49> Section 2.1.5.1.1: For the NTFS file system this is the index and sequence number portions (low 64 bits) of the FileId128.  The ReFS file system maps a subset of the possible FileId128 values to FileId64 values using a reversible compression algorithm; for values outside of this subset, ReFS sets the FileId64 to -1.

<50> Section 2.1.5.1.1: For the NTFS file system, this is the index portion (low 48 bits) of the FileId128. The ReFS file system does not implement this field.

<51> Section 2.1.5.1.1: Only ReFS supports FILE_ATTRIBUTE_INTEGRITY_STREAM.

<52> Section 2.1.5.1.1: Only NTFS and ReFS support FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NO_SCRUB_DATA.

<53> Section 2.1.5.1.1: Only NTFS and UDFS implement named streams.

<54> Section 2.1.5.1.1: The ReFS filesystem limits a named stream size to 128KB. If the Create operation for a new named stream specifies a larger size, ReFS fails the Create operation with STATUS_FILE_SYSTEM_LIMITATION.

<55> Section 2.1.5.1.2: Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, and Windows Vista, treat the FILE_DISALLOW_EXCLUSIVE option as always being FALSE.

<56> Section 2.1.5.6.1: This is implemented only by the NTFS file system.

<57> Section 2.1.5.6.1: This directory is only available on NTFS volumes formatted to NTFS version 3.0 or late.

<58> Section 2.1.5.6.1: "*" is treated as 0x0000002A during the search, and it gives the practical behavior of a wildcard since an ObjectId starts with a much larger value. Similarly, "?" is treated as 0x0000003F and so practically it behaves like "*".

<59> Section 2.1.5.6.2: This is implemented only by the NTFS file system. This is not implemented on the FAT32 file system and STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER will be returned.

<60> Section 2.1.5.6.2: This directory is only available on NTFS volumes formatted to NTFS version 3.x.

<61> Section 2.1.5.6.3: Windows Vista operating system with Service Pack 1 (SP1), Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008 R2 execute this portion only when FirstQuery is TRUE; the remaining conditions are ignored. This means the query pattern for a given Open cannot be changed once it is set.

<62> Section 2.1.5.6.3.1: For file systems that don’t support Extended Attributes, this value MUST be zero.

<63> Section 2.1.5.6.3.3: For file systems that don’t support Extended Attributes, this value MUST be zero.

<182> Section 2.1.5.15.5: Only NTFS implements EAs.

<183> Section 2.1.5.15.6: In Windows 11 version 1 and earlier and Windows Server 2022 and earlier, the destination directory of a FileLinkInformation operation is opened with ShareAccess equal to FILE_SHARE_READ|FILE_SHARE_WRITE. If there is a pre-existing handle with FILE_SHARE_DELETE access on the destination directory, this will result in the operation failing with STATUS_SHARING_VIOLATION.

<184> Section 2.1.5.15.9: If Open.Mode contains neither FILE_SYNCHRONOUS_IO_ALERT nor FILE_SYNCHRONOUS_IO_NONALERT, this operation does not have any meaningful effect, because Open.CurrentByteOffset is not used for any Open that does not have either of those flags set.

<185> Section 2.1.5.15.11: In Windows 11 version 1 and earlier and Windows Server 2022 and earlier, the destination directory of a FileRenameInformation operation is opened with ShareAccess equal to FILE_SHARE_READ|FILE_SHARE_WRITE. If there is a pre-existing handle with FILE_SHARE_DELETE access on the destination directory this will result in the operation failing with STATUS_SHARING_VIOLATION.

<186> Section 2.1.5.15.11:  On Windows NTFS, NTFS checks for open files beneath the directory being renamed (performs section 2.1.4.2), it records the count of open files. If there is a lease to break, NTFS requests the break and then goes back to the start of performing 2.1.5.15.11. NTFS waits for the lease break acknowledgment and restarts the rename operation. When NTFS performs section 2.1.4.2 again, it again records how many open files there are beneath the directory and compares that to the previous count. If the current count is greater than or equal to the previous count, NTFS fails the rename and prevents a possible race condition.

<187> Section 2.1.5.15.11: The file system only updates LastChangeTime if no user has explicitly set LastChangeTime. The NTFS and ReFS file systems defer setting LastChangeTime until the handle is closed.

<188> Section 2.1.5.15.13: ReFS does not implement short names.

<189> Section 2.1.5.15.14: ValidDataLength is an internal implementation detail of the NTFS, FAT, FAT32, ExFAT, and the ReFS file system. It is not a notion that exists in other Windows file systems. ValidDataLength refers to a high-watermark in the file that is considered to be initialized data by a user writing in the region or by the file system writing zeros. Any reads within that value are required to return data from the persistent store. Any reads beyond that value are required to return zeros. On the NTFS and ReFS file systems, when committing the file to media the value for ValidataLength is retained. The FAT, FAT32, and ExFAT file systems do not retain the value of ValidDataLength. FSCTL_QUERY_FILE_REGIONS, as specified in section 2.1.5.10.24, can be used to retrieve the value of ValidDataLength from the media but this FSCTL is only supported on NTFS and ReFS.

<190> Section 2.1.5.16.6: This is implemented only by the NTFS file system.

<191> Section 2.1.5.16.8: Only NTFS implements object IDs.

<192> Section 2.1.5.16.8: This is only implemented by the NTFS file system.
