SYMPTOMS
If you dual boot between Windows NT versions 3.5 (with Service Pack 2) and 3.51 on the same computer and compress files and directories on an NTFS partition in version 3.51, you cannot open, delete, copy, move, rename or change attributes of these files and directories in version 3.5. In addition, the following error message appears:

The network request is not supported.

NOTE: This problem occurs in both File Manager and the MS-DOS Command Prompt in version 3.5.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.5. A fix to this problem is in development, but has not been regression-tested and may be destabilizing in production environments. Microsoft does not recommend implementing this fix at this time. Contact Microsoft Product Support Services for more information on the availability of this fix.
