I don't understand this.

The question is asking what attributes are copied for a file specifically on windows platform and the answer is "platform and system dependent"?

The context is too specific to be ignored.

1. The problem statement doesn't mention Windows anywhere. Even though paths do seem like Windows but they could be of any other OS also.
2. The Java API does not guarantee which attributes will be copied. Therefore, even if the platform is windows, different versions of JVM may still do it differently.

The second point cleared it.

Thank you.
