Description: The SoftLinks application allows you to create files which are links to other files. The link file behaves exactly like the original (base) file except that it takes very little disc space. Deleting the link does not delete the base file. SoftLinks can create links with different access levels: read-only, read-write, and read-write-overwrite.
