It really makes me wonder what they're doing though when it comes to mounting mass storage devices in these newer versions of Windows. Are they trying to be more strict about file system standards and specifications in order to implement security features to prevent the mounting of malicious volumes or something? Because I can't figure it out. Hopefully this all gets sorted out by the next general release next year.
It seems as if any modification from the stock boot sector (AKA VBR) structure makes Windows 10 unhappy. I suspect that you are correct in thinking that Microsoft is treating all modifications as being malicious.
