Dear Community,
I am working with several other people in a share Dropbox folder, which contains several subfolders. Now I wanted to create a shortcut from one subfolder to another subfolder within this Dropbox (everybody has access to every folder) to save space - is this possible without .ink-files appearing in the shortcut?
Best,
Susanna
Another workaround is to create a "network drive letter" that links to the Dropbox folder. So everyones Dropbox network letter in my organization is Z:
So when I create a shortcut I just make sure Im in the network drive location and create shortcut, everyone can now use it.
Fairly easy to find guides online on how to make the Dropbox a network drive.
Thx joimagg.
I did not know that it was possible to map a logical drive to local folder.
Here is the how-to for people as ignorant as I am 😉
