Junction Points are a little known NTFS v5+ feature roughly equivalent to Unix directory symbolic links.

They are supported in Windows 2000 and onwards, where a directory serves as a symbolic link to another directory on the computer. For example, if the directory D:\SYMLINK specified C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32 as its target, then an application accessing D:\SYMLINK\DRIVERS would in reality be accessing C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS.
