Hello,

Can someone confirms Traktor still not manage files stored into folders created with mklink on Windows?

I've successfully used a hardlink folder some time in the past.

Hi @Anselm. Thanks for your answer.

Unfortunately, I am facing an issue with folder junction on Windows 10 and Traktor 3.6.2. For the record, here is the scenario...

Setup folder junction:

Import into Traktor:

import tracks from c:\link into Traktor
check consistency > no problem detected
play imported tracks > success
close Traktor
open collection.nml in an xml editor > the location dir of tracks is "/:" instead of "/:link/:"
relaunch Traktor
check collection consistency > tracks are detected as "missing"

Confirm reproducibility:

relocate missing tracks from c:\link
check consistency > no problem detected
play imported tracks > success
close Traktor
open collection.nml in an xml editor > the location dir of tracks is "/:" instead of "/:link/:"
relaunch Traktor
check collection consistency > tracks are detected as "missing"

I've had a path problem myself and solved it by updating it to the latest version... might be that path handling was errorous in multiple aspects? ( https://community.native-instruments.com/discussion/7813/my-library-doubles-imported-m3u-with-relative-paths-superslow-browser#latest )
