Scenario:
Dual boot system, when logged into the first one (c:\) and trying to search for something on the other system (d:\) or trying to find something in a backup drive, some directory links are followed (mostly those created with 'mklink /D' [junction.exe reports:SYMBOLIC LINK] e.g. D:\Users\All Users -> C:\ProgramData, but not only), some are not (mostly created with 'mklink /J' [junction.exe reports:JUNCTION] but not all). Not sure what the heuristic behind this is but I'd like to have something deterministic, a checkbox 'Do not follow links/junctions' near 'Search archives' would be great.
OS: Vista 32 Business, Total Commander 7.57a, 8.0
Edit: also in 'Change Attributes...' near 'Recurse subdirectories' as it ends up messing up current system.
