  What's really interesting is that I when I purchased the original version of OS/2 Warp, IBM had the concept of "Shadows". Microsoft calls them shortcuts in Windows. What was nice about "Shadows" is that if you moved a file referenced by one or more "Shadows" or even deleted that file, the "Shadows" associated with it would be updated to reflect the new location of the file or deleted, respectively.
  
  Think about it folks. OS/2 Warp did this back in the 90s and Windows still does not have this feature.
