    Hi everyone,

    Does someone know how i can fix Symbolic Links that are not read by Samplers and some Programs?

    Clicking on the directory works just fine
    i made them with cmd administrator mode and with /J ( tried /D function too but that does not work either )

    I had a Sample folder on C
    That i moved to another drive

    And now programs like ( TAL Sampler, Kontakt, ) Bitwig do not seem to read it properly when loading songs with samples in the new drive

    Pointing samplers to the new drive from their own "browse" and find function works just fine, but the samples do not load when opening the song and show "file missing" errors

    edit: Songs opened in FL Studio work

    Some things just can't be fixed.

    Could be a problem of Permissions (security tab in both the SL and the pointed folder).
    Not sure about that though.
