About
Create symlinks and junctions for files and folders inside or outside your vault. Use OS-native commands on Desktop: ln -s on macOS/Linux, mklink (admin required for cross-drive symlinks) and mklink /J on Windows. Run only in Desktop mode and exercise caution—symlinks can cause data loss.Details
