Way to make script symlinks from inside xyplorer
Re: No Target shown for Symbolic links
I always have been in details view, nothing has been or is showing under the junction target column ?
Re: No Target shown for Symbolic links
Main menu > View > Views > Details
Make sure this is active.
Even after being in details view, if you can't see anything in junction target, then an obvious conclusion is the item question is not a junction at all.

Re: No Target shown for Symbolic links
Run this through the Address Bar:
It will color junctions in Tree and List in any view and independent of any other settings.
Code: Select all
colorfilter("attr:junction>FFFFFF,FB4F04");

Below the junction target column remains empty for the files, even after running the code you posted.admin wrote:Run this through the Address Bar:It will color junctions in Tree and List in any view and independent of any other settings.Code: Select all

Re: No Target shown for Symbolic links
1. How exactly did you create such a "junction" file?
2. Navigate to the folder that contains these "junctions"
3. #1005; in the address bar, hit enter
4. In the new command prompt enter:
dir /al
Hit enter.
5. Show the screenshot of that command prompt window

dir /al

File not found is what is shown in the command prompt ? The junction was created few weeks ago !highend wrote:1. How exactly did you create such a "junction" file?

I have to try the command again, tomorrow.
Edit: Attempt again - Results on hold
Re: No Target shown for Symbolic links
I ran this command; dir /a:l /s there are numerous junctions on the system but the one junction that I've been testing with XY is not listed and I don't understand why when I know for a fact the junction was created for the files within the folder for which I've been wondering why XY junction is not working.
There wouldn't be a discrepancy between an Admin and a Standard user in XY ?

Re: No Target shown for Symbolic links
You can not have a junction to FILES.
So, the parent folder of the files in question is a junction, that doesn't mean everything inside automatically turns to junctions too.
Good bye.

Re: No Target shown for Symbolic links
