When I use "vssadmin" on Windows7's powershell,I capture an error that "Paths that begin with \\?\GlobalRoot are internal to the kernel and should not be opened by managed applications".

What's the meaning of "internal to the kernel" and "managed applications"?

CodePudding user response：

"Internal to the kernel" means that the path at hand should only be accessed by the operating system's kernel, and not by applications running in the user space a.k.a userland (regular applications that run outside the kernel).

Managed applications are one kind of user-space applications, in particular those using a .NET runtime.
