Good luck mounting EFS in Windows.
4 comments

Apparently the nfs client in windows only supports nfs v3 - while efs only supports v4. The closest I found was:

Seems odd that there are no commercial nfs v4 clients for windows? Might now be possible to mount via wsl?

I see ractos has nfs client - but could not figure out which version...

WinFsp (FUSE for Windows) has an NFS driver: https://github.com/winfsp/nfs-win
Do you mean EFS specifically, or you find that NFS doesn't work? Because it was my recollection that Windows included NFS machinery natively
EFS - this is what is being talked about here.
AWS also offers FSx for Windows File Server, and FSx for ONTAP if you need remote Windows file service.
We are talking about EFS here
