No Target shown for Symbolic links
Posted: 02 Mar 2015 13:08
Version 14.80.200, Windows 7
For symbolic links, the field containing Junction Target is empty and Shortcut is empty too. I found no way to show the target path for Symlinks.
This is the case both for custom property columns AND in the property display when hovering on the item; it does not matter if I hover on the tree or the list.
The Icon showing for the symlinks are correctly indicating the symlink.
For "normal" junctions, the field "Junction Target" is correct.
Btw., I find no indication that XYPlorer is making a distinction between SymLinks and Junctions (although there should be: see explanations on LinkShellExtension tool) -- except for this bug.
I'm a total newbee for XYPlorer, so excuse me if I'm just being daft. Yes, I did check help and board for all the terms.
Thanks for your answer, Rolf
