NTFS Junction Point - Limitations

Limitations

Junction points do not work at boot, so it's impossible to redirect e.g.:

  • folder containing hiberfile.sys (if it's configured to be outside root directory)
  • \Windows
  • \Windows\System32
  • \Windows\Config

Nevertheless, it is possible to redirect:

  • \Users
  • \Documents and Settings
  • \Program Files
  • \Program Files (x86)

Famous quotes containing the word limitations:

    “That all may be so, but when I begin to exercise that power I am not conscious of the power, but only of the limitations imposed on me.”
    —William Howard Taft (1857–1930)

    “The motion picture made in Hollywood, if it is to create art at all, must do so within such strangling limitations of subject and treatment that it is a blind wonder it ever achieves any distinction beyond the purely mechanical slickness of a glass and chromium bathroom.”
    —Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)

    “No man could bring himself to reveal his true character, and, above all, his true limitations as a citizen and a Christian, his true meannesses, his true imbecilities, to his friends, or even to his wife. Honest autobiography is therefore a contradiction in terms: the moment a man considers himself, even in petto, he tries to gild and fresco himself.”
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
