How about locking the vnode or inode of directory? i did not any such

You're thinking too much like Linux/UNIX. There is no vnode/inode in
Windows.
What you're trying to control is considered a feature and the prescribed
solution is to use an unprivileged user or to use 'cygdrop'. You may find
a suitable alternative for your case with some experimentation too but I
think it's pretty clear at this point that there is no ready-made solution
that meets the criteria that you've stipulated.
