- #41: for the root of a drive, the cmdlets read and changed the security
descriptor of the drive, a device object. FileSystemSecurity2 now routes
drive roots through the path-based AlphaFS methods, which keep the
trailing backslash; the removal and inheritance helpers use it too.
- #109: Add-, Remove-, and Clear-NTFSAudit report a security descriptor
without the audit entries like Get-NTFSAudit, through one helper, and
Get-NTFSEffectiveAccess names the cause that Windows reported instead
of a missing Security privilege.
- #108: Copy-Item2 and Move-Item2 check the destination only for an
operation that runs; with -WhatIf, a verbose message names the conflict.
- #111: Disable-Privileges skips the privileges that the token doesn't
hold, the privilege messages are spelled right, and Get-FileHash2
declares the type name of its objects; 05-Releasing.md documents the
release metadata tests.
- rc3 review leftovers: Remove-NTFSAudit writes nothing for an item
without a SACL, the owner retry of Set-NTFSSecurityDescriptor restores
the previous owner in a finally block and keeps an owner that the
descriptor sets, and FileSystemSecurity2.Write with another item writes
only the sections that were read.
Each fix has a test that failed first, in Windows PowerShell 5.1 and
PowerShell 7; writing a drive root was checked once on a temporary VHD.

Write orphaned audit entries outside the read error handler, so that a
stopped pipeline isn't reported as a read error. Pass -RemoveSpecific
through the string path overload of RemoveFileSystemAuditRule, and state
on the Get-NTFSSimpleAccess page that the security descriptor of a file
is reported.

Defect 16. Get-NTFSOrphanedAccess, Get-NTFSOrphanedAudit, and
Get-NTFSSimpleAccess inherit -Account and -SecurityDescriptor from
Get-NTFSAccess or Get-NTFSAudit but override ProcessRecord without them:
- All three now filter by -Account and process security descriptors
(Get-NTFSOrphanedAudit writes an error for one read without its SACL,
like Get-NTFSAudit).
- Get-NTFSOrphanedAudit wrote the entries of each item as one collection;
it now writes one object per entry.
- Get-NTFSOrphanedAccess kept the entries of the previous item and wrote
them in a finally block, like Get-NTFSAccess before; each item now
starts empty.
- SimpleFileSystemAccessRule had no view; it gets a table with Account,
Access Rights, and Type, grouped by folder, with the grouping control
that existed for it but was unused.
Tests: Access.Tests.ps1 6 tests; Audit.Tests.ps1 2 tests, CI-only because
they add audit entries.
