I wish that TC would recognize which folders are Folder Shortcuts, and go directly to the target folder when you open them, rather than having to click on the target.lnk file as a second step.
If you can do just that, that would be good enough for me.
More difficult would be to duplicate Windows Explorer's full functionality: it remembers when you browse to a folder via a Folder Shortcut, and when you Backspace to the 'parent' directory, it goes back to the folder containing the Folder Shortcut, rather than to the actual parent. So in Explorer, Folder Shortcuts are a fully navigable two-way 'wormhole' through the directory tree.
ALTERNATIVELY:
Another way to achieve my objective is to use Junctions. However, they have a downside: deleting a file transfers the file from one disk to another (if the link target is on a different disk, which is usually the case for me). This is using Recycle Bin, of course, which I want to keep doing. For a large file, it freezes TC for a few moments before you can continue using.
So another solution is for TC to be more aware of Junctions when deleting, and send the deleted file to the Recycle Bin on the same physical disk, rather than just looking at the drive letter of the path and sending it there.
Implementing both of these would be good, too.
