Iconsistent reach of file C:/Windows/System32/drivers/etc/hosts

[dzmitry-lahoda]

Compiles:

  type Windows = FileSystem<"C:/Windows/System32/drivers/etc">
  let updateHosts name (ip:IPAddress) = 
    Windows.hosts

Not compiles (where is etc?):

  type Windows = FileSystem<"C:/Windows/System32/drivers">
  let updateHosts name (ip:IPAddress) = 
    Windows.etc

I want to reach C:/Windows/System32/drivers/etc/hosts which is like local DNS table, sometimes used to to ensure .NET IO classes map to right network storage by name. Hence change of hosts during deployment.

I think it's something with access rights.

Not sure how type providers work, but can FileSystem<"C:/Windows/System32/drivers/"> run in one rights, but when I type Windows.etc in VS 2015 editor to be under other rights?
