Product Version = NetBeans IDE 7.0.1 RC1 (Build 201106222100) Operating System = Windows 7 version 6.1 running on amd64 Java; VM; Vendor = 1.6.0_26 Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 20.1-b02 We use symbolic link (we try with both junction and symbolic) in our projects. And we move to win7 64bits few days ago, and we notice that netbeans cannot navigate into file system when using symbolic link in the path. To be more precise, when open a project, the fileChooser allow us to go threw the symbolic link (great), but when browsing for libraries (add JAR/Folder for instance) we cannot go threw symbolic link. I try to put -J-Dnb.FileChooser.useShellFolder=false in netbeans.conf but it didn't do anything. I also try with the new JDK7 but there is the same issu. I hope there is a solution as we really need to use symbolic links FoxXav
