| Jul 18, 2015 at 1:09 | comment | added | Cornelius Dol | Be very careful with Windows Explorer and junctions; it doesn't differentiate junctions from the base location and a delete will recurse into the target and delete it's contents, whereas the delete of a symlink will just remove the symlink. Just a trap for the unwary. | |
