Why isn't mingw32's find command printing all files on c:?

Question

I'm using mingw32 (as packaged by msysgit for windows), and I'm trying to list all the files on my C drive. I would expect

find /c

to do this. However, this is not what I'm seeing (in an mingw32 window):

$ find /c
 ...
/c/Program Files
/c/Program Files/7-Zip
/c/Program Files/7-Zip/7-zip.chm
...
/c/System Volume Information
find: /c/System Volume Information: Permission denied
/c/WINDOWS
/c/ZInstaller

What gives? Why are the files under WINDOWS and ZInstaller not showing up? If I find /c/windows or find /c/ZInstaller, all is well.

Answer 1

The 1.0.11 release specifically addresses this problem. Make sure you using at least that version of msys.
