I want to create a link to remote Linux folder from Windows 10 machine. I see Windows has SFTP and SCP commands built in for accessing remote machines. So there must be some way to create links as well.

I wonder if we can we do something like below? (forgive the syntax)

mklink /D c:\remotelinks\remoteDir ssh:user@host//linuxdir

A straight link like you mention maybe not, but you have some options:

After setting up something like you might be able to create links or shortcuts.

  • Thanks a lot, it solved my problem for now. For others' information, yes, it is possible to create symlinks after mapping the remote using mentioned method. I wish it was possible to directly create link without the need to map the drive, since it limits how many we can map; but there are ~20 letters so shouldn't be issue most of time – vikrant21st May 19 '21 at 15:46
