There is a workaround you could use in the meantime. DisplayFusion will follow symlinks to other folders, so you can do the following:

• Create your root folder
• Open an elevated command prompt and change to the directory you just created
• Enter the following command for each folder you want to link to: symlink /D shortcutname actual-folder-path (i.e. symlink /D Wallpapers1 X:\Wallpapers1

Hope that helps! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cycling-through-wallpaper-folder-containing-shortcuts-to-pictures-doesnt-display-them/?ID=ae13ea96-9e03-4fe6-850f-872c61888472 Mon, 17 Aug 2015 16:26:51 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/cycling-through-wallpaper-folder-containing-shortcuts-to-pictures-doesnt-display-them/?ID=ae13ea96-9e03-4fe6-850f-872c61888472 DisplayFusion This probably is more of a feature request than a bug…

To save storage space and reduce data redundancy, I created a folder, pointed the wallpaper randomizer to it, and created shortcuts to pictures in various directories. It appears DF doesn't recognize .lnk files.

Since this probably is a feature request, could this be added down the road? ]]>
