Actually there is no problem. Windows 7 stores boot files in one
partition and system files in another, so you won't find Windows
directory in the boot partition. I constantly forget about it.

BTW, I think i understand how this flag works. If the file is
installed by Windows and not writable, it has a TrustedInstaller
security descriptor and namespace is set  to 0, for example
C:\Windows\notepad.exe. If the file is modified, there is no
TrustedInstaller descriptor and namespace is set to 1, such as
C:\Windows\win.ini. It seems this flag is not used for unix namespace
anymore.
