Whether the same behavior applies to newer versions is unknown. As of now it works for Windows 10 and doesn't work for Windows 11. That the behavior seen in Windows 11 where `FileSysetemView.getParentDirectory(C:/..../Documents)` return "C:/..../Desktop". So this is an observations and I think this particular test cannot handle the scenario, which is why I'm skipping it for only Window 11.
