That seems only slightly less scary than the btrfs on Windows project (which suggests disabling SecureBoot). At least it's from a ZFS contributor (while btrfs on Windows seems like a from-scratch rewrite, ie. all the bugs all over again).
From the comments here I take it people aren't actually using anything with features like snapshots/cow/compression on Windows :-/
- Monkeyget 8y agoIt won't work on an up to date Windows 10 because the latest updates of Windows 10 don't allow testsigning mode anymore.
- Wowfunhappy 8y agoThis is somewhat like downloading an open source Android app from github, and saying it's scary that you need to go into settings and enable sideloading. Microsoft has somewhat ridiculous driver signing requirements. I become angry about this perhaps once every four months.
- unhammer 8y agoI have a bit more skepticism about file system drivers than Apps.
