Yes, sorry, it does print 1. Copy & Paste error.

Given "cyg Simple"'s comment, I guess I need to recreate the mapped drives as
the Administrator user?

(Note that the literal "/usr/lib/csih/getVolInfo.exe Z:" printed
"NtOpenFile(\??\C:\cygwin64\home\jonathan\Z:) failed, c0000033", so I assume
that's not what you want.)
