-* Elasticsearch on Windows may fail to start, or it may forbid some file-related operations, when referencing paths with a case different from the one stored by the filesystem. Windows paths are treated in a case-sensitive way, but the filesystem stores them with case. _Entitlements_, the new security system used by Elasticsearch, treat all paths as case-sensitive, and can therefore prevent access to a path that should be accessible. An example: if Elasticsearch is installed in `C:\ELK\elasticsearch`, and you try to launch it as `c:\elk\elasticsearch\bin\elasticsearch.bat`, you will get a `NotEntitledException` while booting. We block access to `c:\elk\elasticsearch` as it does not match with `C:\ELK\elasticsearch`.\
