# Symbolic Links/Shortcuts

Top Previous Next

NTFS Junction Points are links to other folders on the system. They are similar to symbolic links only stronger, ie. referring to a junction point is for most intents and purposes the same as referring to the folder itself. By default Agent Ransack will search junction points, apart from junction points that have the System and Hidden attributes (which normally identify system junction points).
