compares against a constant when lastChild passed by reference! When passed by value, it generates `test cl, cl` for `if ( lastChild )`

returning false means that we were denied CreateFileW access to the volume

expand symbolic links / mount points and find real file path possible return values: c:\path\... \\?\Volume{1edbf4ba-e9fe-11dc-86b3-005056c00008}\path

get system directory for temporary files

return indicates whether we should ask user to elevate

passing by reference: `cmp r14, QWORD PTR [r12]` for `if ( ( i + 1 ) < rowEnd )`,
