Developer’s Description

By Michael Elsdoerfer
Create hardlinks for NTFS file systems.
NTFS Link is a set of Windows Shell Extensions (i.e. they hook into the Windows Explorer), providing extended functionality for creating and using hard links and junction points on NTFS file systems. NTFS Link makes creating a link or junction via the Windows Explorer as easy as copying a file. It also adds a couple of features to improve the usability of links, e.g. by highlighting links via icon overlays, and making sure junctions are deleted correctly.
