Let’s say I have a folder A with a symlink B inside.
When I run Get-Childitem A | Select Name,Attributes, the symlink B is listed with the Attributes Directory, Reparsepoint.
When I run Get-Item B | Select Name,Attributes, the symlink B is listed with the Attributes Directory, Archive, like any other ordinary folder. But this is not an ordinary folder.
Can anyone explain this? I need to check a long list of folders, whether they are symlinks and it wouldn’t be very aesthetic to get the child items of the parent folder and then filter for the folder I’m interested in.
Cannot reproduce.
