   I am doing research as this is also my problem.
   
   You can use `DirectoryEntry.getFile()` to create a `FileEntry`
   https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-file/blob/5e12b5e9f63b12aef5198e9a72ac8d7b8e834442/www/DirectoryEntry.js#L103
   
   There is `resolveLocalFileSystemURL (uri, onSuccess, onError)`
   https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-file/blob/5e12b5e9f63b12aef5198e9a72ac8d7b8e834442/www/resolveLocalFileSystemURI.js#L43
   
   You can create a new FileEntry with these parameters: `name, fullPath, fileSystem, nativeURL`
   https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-file/blob/5e12b5e9f63b12aef5198e9a72ac8d7b8e834442/www/Entry.js#L121
   
   There are some hints [here](https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-file/blob/5e12b5e9f63b12aef5198e9a72ac8d7b8e834442/src/windows/FileProxy.js#L418):
   ```
       var srcFS = getFilesystemFromURL(src);
       var dstFS = getFilesystemFromURL(parent);
       var srcPath = pathFromURL(src);
       var dstPath = pathFromURL(parent);
   ```
   and [here](https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-file/blob/5e12b5e9f63b12aef5198e9a72ac8d7b8e834442/src/windows/FileProxy.js#L457)
   ```
   new FileEntry(
                               name,
                               tgtFsPath,
                               dstFS.name,
                               dstFS.makeNativeURL(tgtFsPath)
   )
   ```
   There are these:
   https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-file/blob/5e12b5e9f63b12aef5198e9a72ac8d7b8e834442/src/windows/FileProxy.js#L914
   
   After looking at this
   https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-file/blob/5e12b5e9f63b12aef5198e9a72ac8d7b8e834442/src/windows/FileProxy.js#L974
   I guess, the parameters look like this for a file in `/directory/file.txt`:
   - name: `file.txt`
   - fullPath: `/directory/file.txt`
   - fileSystem: `fs.name`
   - nativeURL: `fs.makeNativeURL(path)`
   
   There is this:
   ```
   var fs = getFilesystemFromURL(url);
   var path = pathFromURL(url);
   ```
   https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-file/blob/5e12b5e9f63b12aef5198e9a72ac8d7b8e834442/src/windows/FileProxy.js#L1004
