[QUOTE="jblocher, post: 1215473, member: 197035"] I've tried to create a hard link (not a symbolic link) at my command line as: [CODE] ln /path/to/stored/file.prf /path/where/I/want/it/file.prf [/CODE] but when I alter either file, the other one remains unchanged. It is no different from simply copying the file. Is this a bug? Or perhaps user error? I've done this in Linux (both native and Cygwin) and it works. [/QUOTE]
