And is this a mount point? Same drive, the junction and the target are in the Documents as well.

What is the target of that junction?

C:\Users\myname\OneDrive - mycompany\Documents\Visual Studio 2015\

Edit: it has to be related to the ONeDrive folder. If I paste junction there, it won't have Junction menu.

Ah, the OneDrive problem. In Win 10 or later OneDrive abuses FILE_ATTRIBUTE_REPARSE_POINT (= J = the junction attribute): these are NOT real junctions. But I'm not sure if that's still the case. Maybe it was just beta or bug. Can you check if all your folders under OneDrive have the J attribute?

No, they don't have.

OK, in the next beta you should get the Junctions stuff in the context menu.

Okay, it appeared now. The junction target is empty though for the junctions in the OneDrive folder (also the OneDrive folder itself is an empty target junction).

Yeah, that's what I meant by "... abuses FILE_ATTRIBUTE_REPARSE_POINT...".

Sure, sure. I prefer the junction menu appearing anyway. So from my perspective it is as good as possible for now.
