Windows shortcuts (e.g. on the Desktop) are apparently not resolved in RM file dialogs. Users who rely on that shortcuts easily get confused.

    Hi,

    what you refer to as a shortcut unfortunately is not a feature of the file system, but rather a plain file with some special contents. There is no platform independent way of handling this, and Microsoft is free to change the format with every version of their OS they release. Therefore, this is something  that is not going to happen in the near future.

    Best,
    Simon
