Explanation

Azure File Sync has specific requirements for server endpoints. A server endpoint cannot reside on the system volume (the volume hosting the Windows OS, typically C:). Folder3 is most likely located on the system volume (e.g., C:\Folder3), which disqualifies it-Azure File Sync explicitly blocks sync endpoints on the system volume to prevent OS file conflicts. Folder1 and Folder2 reside on non-system NTFS volumes and meet all requirements: they are not reparse points, not in the Windows directory, and are on supported volume types.
