Problem

I've just acquired a brand new laptop. Did split my ssd in 3 partitions, one for , one for and one shared partition. I chose for this partition, but i did not find how to create symlinks on it. With win7 won't work. Any suggestions/ideas? Should i have picked NFTS for this shared partition ?

Fix for: Does or will exFAT support symlinks?

Low Risk

Symbolic links are nowhere referenced in the exFAT feature list. Additionally I remember that NTFS symbolic links only work if source and destination are NTFS partitions. May be it is sufficient to mount the shared exFAT data partitions as a sub-dir…
