Description

when I mount windows directory from multipass, how do I set the exec flag so I can execute scripts on the mount?

Is there a way to specify a mount option?

For example, if I run this I am unable to execute scripts on windows mount
multipass mount c:\temp primary

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is identified. First reproduce the Windows-directory mount with `multipass mount c:\temp primary` and investigate how mounted permissions are represented; done means the supported behavior or mount option is documented and scripts on the mount can be executed as expected.
