It may seem a very noob to a few but I am trying to retrieve the the target of an existing symbolic link folder in Windows. I checked the properties of this link but nothing was displayed. How can I do it?
Edit: issue is in Windows Server 2008.

I got the information about the linked "target" by using the dir command. I did the following:
- Changed the directory to the parent of symbolic link folder in Command Prompt.
- Used the dir command
The file type of the symbolic link was displayed as <<Junction>> and the target location was displayed in the very next column.
edit: This problem is in Windows Server 2008.
