How do I write a rule for a symbolic link directory?
Environment
Microsoft Windows: All Supported Versions

Resolution
The rule needs to target the linked directory. For example if you have "C:\temp\oldfolder\test" linked to "C:\temp\newfolder\test\", the rule needs to target the "newfolder" directory.
