Does Windows have Inode Numbers like Linux?

Question

Does Windows have Inode Numbers like Linux? How does Windows internally manage files?

Answer 1

This question is more about filesystems than a particular OS I believe. Each filesystem handles files differently (and each OS can support multiple filesystems).

http://pcnineoneone.com/howto/filesystems1/ has a pretty good writeup on FAT and NTFS, which are two popular filesystems with windows.
