A comparison of a report between filelight and windirstat for the same dir.

Files with attribute 'A' on an NTFS volume, the 17.12 win32 version of filelight seem to be ignored when the report is created. As screenshot comparing with windirstat seems to confirm: all files with attribute A seem to be missing throughout the filelight report.

we just use lstat, so maybe that is broken on windows? I'm not familiar with windows nor do I have it available, so I can't look into this myself.
