Remote_file fails on Windows when source attribute uses file scheme and atomic_update is set to default value of true on Chef 11.6.hotfix.1

By default in Chef 11.6, remote_file uses the atomic update strategy for updating files. On Windows, this results in remote_file resources failing with a source url using the "file:" scheme failing with access denied -- here is an example recipe:

remote_file "#{ENV['HOME']}/non_atomic_works.txt" do
  atomic_update false
  source "file://#{ENV['SystemDrive']}/windows/system.ini"
 end

remote_file "#{ENV['HOME']}/atomic_fails.txt" do
  source "file://#{ENV['SystemDrive']}/windows/system.ini"

end
