Public bug reported:

After upgrading to .870 DC++ will not follow Windows symbolic links when
moving files from DC++ temp to the final destination.

I have many messages like this:

[09:43] Unable to move <N:\DC++temp\ELP 1975-05-25
d1t06.flac.PUW3JQHMQ2KI2JVXXELJYN7EIH6KCZGUXFM44TY.dctmp> to
<N:\stg\Emerson Lake & Palmer + Related\elp 1974-05-25 Ahoy Halle,
Rotterdam, Netherlands cdr\Disc 1\ELP 1975-05-25 d1t06.flac> (The system
cannot find the path specified.); renamed to <N:\DC++temp\ELP 1975-05-25
d1t06.flac>

The path N:\Emerson Lake & Palmer + Related is a link to a folder on
another drive.

I can manually move the files so I know the link is working correctly (from a non-elevated command prompt):
N:\DC++temp>move "ELP 1975-05-25 d1t06.flac" "N:\stg\Emerson Lake & Palmer + Related\elp 1974-05-25 Ahoy Halle, Rotterdam, Netherlands cdr\Disc 1"
        1 file(s) moved.


I have had to back off to .868, where this worked fine
