Soft and hard links are only supported on NTFS formatted disks.



Soft links are supported on ReFS, but hard links are not.


True, but ReFS isn't supported in consumer versions of Windows so not really worth mentioning.


Somehow I missed that Microsoft removed the ability to create new ReFS volumes in regular Windows 10 Pro. Quite frustrating, thanks for the heads up.


I created a vhdx file on windows 2016 server, formatted it with ReFS and copied it to my PC. And I mount the vhdx as D:. It's such a silly way to do something.
