Dear IT-professionals,

I want to link some folders to each other, therefore I found the Link Shell Extension.



It uses different types of links. Can somebody tell me - in just simple explanations (i'm not a professional):

1) what the differences are in using these different options and

2) an example for what purposes you can use each option the best...?


Different options in the "Link Shell Extension" utility:

FOR FOLDERS:

  1. Symbolic Link
  2. Junction
  3. Smart Copy
  4. Smart Mirror
  5. DeLorean Copy
  6. Hardlink Clone

FOR FILES:

  1. Hardlink
  2. Symbolic Link

When you're a pro, you probably know what I am talking about. If you need some more information on the utility, feel free to examine the website I provided. There is a lot of information on it... But I do not get it... :-/

Hope somebody can give me some clarifying information so I can understand.

Thank you very much in advance.
