Describe what you noticed and did
Symbolic links created inside of sandbox don’t work properly.
A simple batch file for testing is given below. Just create the batch file (e.g. test.bat), put it in any empty folder, launch inside/outside of sandbox and compare the results. The message “Test passed” should appear if junction can be created and accessed normally.
Notes: The batch file creates SymLinkDir junction inside of working directory, runs the test and then removes the junction. NTFS is required (FAT32 doesn’t support symbolic links)
Result: The test fails inside of sandbox (with file system isolation inside of working directory), the junction can be created but is not accessible
How often did you encounter it so far?
Every time
Affected program
