No, UMDF does not handle much of what is needed for a file system.
There have been some commercial third party products that claim to
support user space file system development but their quality is pretty
much unknown.
Do you really need a file system? This isn't Unix/Linux for /proc file
systems, that isn't the way to manage things in Windows. Most other
cases you are either doing a file system for reliability or speed and
those don't fit well with a user space effort.
