What is the difference between a copy and a shortcut?
When you copy something, you create a clone file, and those two files are completely independent of each other, that means if something happens to one file (ie if you delete it), then nothing will happen to the clone of the file, and it works vice versa. On the other hand, a shortcut is dependant on the file it is leading to. If something happens to the mother file (lets just call it that), like deletion, then the shortcut will be useless. What a shortcut does is just keeps you from going into a bunch of directories (aka, my computer, or documents, etc.) to access a certain file. Source: 10 years of using computers
