Confirmed that version 22.10.0200 is working as expected with "Resolve Junctions" checked.

Thanks again for the fix.

Just a heads-up, that keeping "Resolve Junctions" checked no longer works in the latest versions.

I was able to get the pathbar working again by unchecking this option, without this, editing a path would resolve back to the original dropbox folder and not the mapped one.

:? Did not change anything and it still works fine here.

You might want to check out an earlier version of XY, just to verify that something stopped working that worked before:

The last version I verified that was working was: XYplorer 22.10.0200

Thanks for the link for the freezer page, nice to have a simple location to grab versions from.

Mysterious. Since then, nothing has been changed concerning symbolic link paths. Cannot explain. And as I said, unlike before the last fix, I can't reproduce a problem now.

Ok, thank you for the response. Just giving a heads-up in case is helps to track down these changes. On my end, the links are the same, it's just the response within xyplorer that is different. At least toggling the resolve options works, so its not broken, yay!
