What does this mean exactly? I’m doing something like this:

File.Copy(@'\\foo\bar\baz.txt', @'c:\test\baz.txt'); 

MSDN doesn’t describe this exception except in general terms, and googling around just yields tables of error codes.

I’ve confirmed the source file exists, and I’m 99% sure that I have the permissions to copy the file to the destination location.

    Check this article for some information about using symlinks in .Net: ‘Manipulating NTFS Junction Points in .NET‘.

    According to this article:

    ‘In particular the .NET libraries does not include any functionality for creating or querying properties of Junction Points’

    But there is a method how to actually get the target of the symlink, and then you’ll be able to use File.Copy with it.
