I don't think it's fair to say Nikos doesn't like junctions (they are supported, after all), it's just that they are a little hairy to suggest as a solution for more "casual" users - as you say, they do come with a little XP baggage (solved, finally, a few years back, in Vista [post Vista...

You can also put in there folder junctions but you don't need to get too fancy! A feature of using junctions (or symlinks) for this purpose is that the route via which you got somewhere is "remembered", so:-   if you navigate to a folder via a junction (or symlink) and then do a backspace...

This may be of some use http://www.codeproject.com/KB/DLL/cs_interface_7zip.aspx FWIW I'd like something that will pack & unpack multi-part RARS, I don't think 7zip can pack them.  I think it creates those .001, 002 files which for my purist heart is a bit of a kludge.   The advantage of RAR arc...

[SOLVED] Disable Robust Copy/Move

I  had my x2 setup with the Robust Copy option disabled, but I lost it when I migrated to Win 7 64 bit

And I can't find the note with the Miscellaneous Options value I need to set/unset

Couldn't see anything in manual

could someone remind me what I need to do

thanks

I too use Hardlink Shell Extension (LSE).  I use junctions and symlinks to folders & files in Win 7.   I only get the "the specified path does not exist" message if the symlink targets an executable file. For other file types, a click will open the file in its default program - e.g. tx...
