but find command report them as regular files :
# find /test/AppData/Local/Microsoft/WindowsApps/ -type l
/(nothing is returned)/
# find /test/AppData/Local/Microsoft/WindowsApps/ -maxdepth 1 -type f
/test/AppData/Local/Microsoft/WindowsApps/MicrosoftEdge.exe
/test/AppData/Local/Microsoft/WindowsApps/python.exe
/test/AppData/Local/Microsoft/WindowsApps/python3.7.exe
/test/AppData/Local/Microsoft/WindowsApps/python3.exe
This is because "ls" and "find" do not rely on the same data.
"ls" relies on the object attributes returned by stat(), and
"find" relies on the data stored in directories returned by
readdir().
In this situation you are accessing a normal directory which
contains unexpected data (the object is returned as a normal
file because there is no way to say it has an unknown type).
This can be fixed by analyzing deeper, but I am not keen on
doing so until some useful meaning (which could be different
from a symlink) can be assigned in Linux to such object.

hi Jean-Pierre,
the plugin also works perfectly with Archlinux x64.
thanks again, regards, Pascal.

hi Jean-Pierre,
the plugin works perfectly with Pop_OS (Debian Ubuntu like) x64
: error I/Os no longer occur and files simply appear as broken
links.
I'll be testing shortly with Archlinux...
regards, Pascal.

Did you install the plugin I suggested ?
This is what you should get (well approximately, please
ignore
the reformatting by the mailer), and obviously the links
lead
to no usable files (as ntfs-3g cannot start a remote Windows
executable).
If you do not get this, please post the output of the
script from :
