Yes, the "Edit raw settings" is only in the recent versions. And indeed the "Resolve symbolic links" option has no effect here.

Thank you very much. Never realized this difference!
I always use "backspace" key to "go back". So it seems the backspace is for "go up". I tried Alt+Left and it worked correctly to "go back".
I am still using 5.9 version. There is a "resolve the symlink" option in the "advanced", but it seems make no difference enable it or not (clear the cache done). Did not find the raw setting option. Maybe only available for later version?

If you go "back" (as in Go to > Back) you should end in /pathA. You probably go "up" instead, right? Because after you enter /pathA/link, you end up in /pathB/source, so "up" in indeed /pathB.

So go really "back", not "up".

Actually WinSCP 5.18 beta has a (hidden) option that should prevent resolving the symlink. So when entering link, you should end up in /pathA/link, not in /pathB/source.

On the Login dialog, go to Advanced > Edit raw settings (https://winscp.net/eng/docs/ui_login_raw) and add:

You will also need to clear the cache. Once you login, go to Commander > Clear Caches.

Hi,
I have a symbolic directory link /pathA/link pointing to /pathB/source. In winscp interface everytime when I enter the link (through /pathA) and go back, it put me under /pathB. Is there an option I can change it so when I go back I am back to /pathA?
Thank you very much.
