Description
Hello
I am now trying your example with ProjFs, without any changes. I tried to rename the "HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG" directory (the name doesn't matter, it's important that it's a placeholder), but got an error "0x80070032: The request is not supported".
It is important to note that renaming newly created directories is easy. In the case of a placeholder, I don't even get any corresponding Notify callbacks.
I get the same error in my implementation, so it is very important for me to figure out what the reason is. Help please.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the placeholder-directory rename in the linked ProjFs sample and compare it with renaming a newly created directory. Check whether the sample produces Notify callbacks in each case and determine what causes error 0x80070032; the issue does not name a repository file or test, so completion would require documenting or correcting the identified behavior.
