The NTFS filesystem of NT4/W2K/WXP/WXP64 supports HardLink functionality, but HardLinks can only be created via the POSIX command ln, which is shipped with the Windows resourcekit. Even if with POSIX commands, HardLinks can only be created via the command prompt, which is a kind of a mess for many files.
The Link Shell Extension implements an extension to the Windows shell explorer, so that HardLinks, Junctions, and SymbolicLinks can be comfortably created via right mouse click on a selection of one or multiple files.
Speed improvements during SmartCopy/SmartMirror/HardlinkClone and Delorean Copy.
Introduced new Heap Manager Rockall for x64 and x86 builds to gain performance.
FreewareFiles tested HardLink ShellExtension 3.6.5.0 on 2011-05-17 using leading
antivirus scanners and found it 100% Clean. It does not contain any form
of malware, spyware, viruses, trojans, etc. We will re-test each updated
version and remove the award as well as the program if found infected.
