Description

Installed from the latest master branch commit:

  • on a substituted drive:
C:\Users\thorsten\.cargo\bin\lsd.exe
cannot access '.': The access control list (ACL) structure is invalid. (os error 1336)
  • on C:
C:\Users\thorsten\.cargo\bin\lsd.exe
cannot access '.': The specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted. (os error 1355)

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the Windows ACL and domain error codes 1336 and 1355. Look into how lsd handles directory listing on Windows, particularly the use of Windows API calls like GetFileAttributesW or FindFirstFileW. Check if the issue is related to substituted drives or domain joined systems.
