ios11 files app don't support symbolic link?

I used the "createSymbolicLinkAtPath: withDestinationPath: error:" to create a symbolic link successfully which direction a folder, but when I opened the ios11 files app to view the symbolic link, I found that the system created an unreadable file.

How to solve this problem thanks.🙂

Realize this is quite an old post but I am running into the same problem.


On each install (which would be everytime if you are running from the debugger) the absolute path to your documents directory changes. I found that this trashes any symbolic links created in previous launches.


I have currently found no way to fix the symbolic links to work all the time. I'm shocked how long it took me to even find your post. My search queries on here didn't find anything until I drilled into the specific CoreOS->FileManager category.
