Hello,

It seems that symbolic links on Windows are not
well reconized by modules os or pathlib.

I have a file named json.txt on my destop. With a
drag and drop right click on it I create a link
automatically named: json.txt - Raccourci.lnk

This is not a symbolic link.

Symbolic links were introduced in Windows Vista/Windows
Server 2008. A .lnk file is just a regular file containing
the path of the target (you can open it and read it if you
wish) that is interpreted in a specific way by the graphical
Shell and some other applications.



Yes you are right

On Windows symbolic links are created in a cmd tool:
e.g

mklink json2.txt json.txt

And it is something different than shortcut files (suffix .lnk)
