    Sometimes ago, i was struggling cause i did a fresh install on small SSD (C) while using other HDD (D) as storage spaces for Kontakt Libraries and samples.

    I had already my studio one preset saved but i couldn't fit my libraries on my 250 GB SSD, so i needed something to create a "Symbolic link" pointing to C while the libraries where somewhere on HDD. After a bit of research i found a nice shell tool to easily create those special shortcuts folders, of course you can use the command line the get the exact same results but like this was far easier and quicker.
