I use Microsoft Remote Desktop to connect my Mac to Microsoft Azure VM. I follow this thread (apple.stackexchange.com/a/140506/20747) to share a Mac folder named Music with the VM. It works fine, here is the result of net use.

In the VM, I need to access this folder by GNU of Cygwin, which looks similar to a command prompt. By following this thread (serverfault.com/questions/656675/cannot-map-drive-letter-to-redirected-folder-when-using-microsoft-remote-desktop), I did MKLINK /D C:\Music \\tsclient\Music to successfully build a symbolic link.

However, when I try to enter the link by cd C:/Music in GNU of Cygwin, I got an error -bash: cd: Music: Permission denied; Moreover, i cannot click into the folder in file explorer anymore.

Does anyone know how to assign the right permission to the symbolic link so that I could cd it in a command prompt?
