FileBot asks Windows to create a hardlink. Windows says "函数不正确。" (NOTE: FileBot doesn't have Chinese error messages; so this error message is from Windows itself) so that probably means that the thing you're trying to do is not possible on a file system level.

How should I test this problem? When I use the MKlink command in CMD, no error will be reported.

Did you confirm that creating a hardlink is conceptually possible in this specific case? Same file system? File system supports hardlinks?


What is the complete context? GUI? Screenshots? CLI? Console output? Please read How to Request Help.

When I use the MKlink command in CMD, no error will be reported.

[rednoah]

What are the complete file paths you are testing with?



Are these file paths on a local NTFS drive or a remote network share?



The 警告: Failed to write xattr key error message suggests that the file at hand is located on a file system that does not support advanced file system features like xattr metadata (e.g. FAT file system or SMB network share) and that basic file system not supporting symlinks / hardlinks would be very much expected.

When I use the MKlink command in CMD, no error will be reported.

Can you copy & paste the command so that we can confirm that you're you are simulating the exact same command with the same file paths that FileBot is running internally? All things being the same, we would expect mklink to fail with the same Windows error message.

Sorry, I don't know how to upload pictures in this forum. I copied the system information and complete error report.

How can I share screenshots?

I think I know what the problem is. Because I have both MAC and Widows installed on my machine, my hard drive is formatted as exfat, and Windows seems to only support NTFS volumes when creating hard links.

exFAT fundamentally does not support hardlinks, and so no tool (not filebot, not mkfile, etc) can create hardlinks on that drive.

Thank you for your answer. It seems that I need to find a way to change the hard disk format.
