Ability to treat junctions and symbolic links

It would be nice if Copernic were able to recognize and skip automatically files ando folders which are targets os junctions and/or symbolic links.


Fo example, I moved my Dropbox folder to a big HD to save space in the system SSD (C:) and added a junction in C:\users\me\documents to this new location (say, D:\Dropbox).


What Copernic does today is to index Dropbox twice, doubling index size and showing the same file twice in results.


I could, of course, exclude one of the paths from indexing (this is actually what I am doing now), but I have dozens of this kind of links and always adding more to "offload" things from C:
