Windows: Failed to create symlink / error removing file / error retrieving image

[sparrowt]

Ah, the Failed to create symlink errors no longer occur if I run from an Administrator powershell prompt - assuming this is expected, perhaps the documentation needs updating to mention this for Windows e.g. under https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/container-diff#windows ? (happy to open a PR if so)

Nevertheless for my private image the other errors (error removing file and thus error retrieving image) still remain so no comparison can be performed. Is it that the file name actually contains a colon :.1.gz?

Looking in the affected .container-diff\cache folder I see a file with the name ..1.gz so perhaps something is replacing the : with a . but then trying to delete it by its original name?
