EFS not working properly on Windows 10 Pro in Bootcamp on a MacBook Pro

I have a MacBook Pro and I ran Bootcamp to install Windows 10 Pro x64. All is well with both OS's. I know that I can't encrypt the entire Bootcamp drive, but everything I've read points to being able to use EFS to encrypt a folder, which is sufficient for me.

I encrypted a folder, it went through the process, but never showed the directory as green. To confirm that it did not work, I booted to the OSX partition and was able to open all the folders on the Bootcamp partition, including the folder that has encryption tued on. That tells me that the folder is not properly encrypted.

Other documentation talked about using efsinfo.exe, but I don't find it on my Bootcamp drive and the link to it from Microsoft is no longer available.

I hope I'm not missing something simple or stupid. I have used this before. I appreciate any help.
