I made one Windows file exist in two folders without creating a second copy

A software engineer has discovered a way to make a single file on Windows appear in two different folders without creating a duplicate copy.

The trick involves using the 'junction' feature in Windows, which allows the creation of symbolic links between directories.

The engineer, who goes by the handle 'doitself', shared their discovery on the website Reddit, where it has been met with both amazement and skepticism.

While the method is not new, it is not widely known and has sparked interest among tech enthusiasts.
