[NewbieQuestion] Link References
« on: November 05, 2013, 09:00:48 »
The path to the referenced file or folder for symlinks is shown immediately after the symlink name i.e.

Quote
symlinkname->path to referenced file or folder

A) how can referenced path be suppressed, I find it 'very untidy'

B) how can the referenced path be shown as a regular column

Thanks

Explorer Panel options > Display > Sorting and Columns > Show link target in name column
