It works on my machine. Could you please share the code you're using?

Here's the one I used:

import 'package:filepicker_windows/filepicker_windows.dart';

void main() {
  final file = OpenFilePicker()..title = 'Select a file';

  final result = file.getFile();
  if (result != null) {
    print(result.path);
  }
}

that's my code :

roby() { final file = OpenFilePicker()..title = 'select a file';

final result = file.getFile(); if (result != null) { return result.path; } }

Interesting, I have no idea why it doesn't work on your machine.

I found this on StackOverflow, which seems to be the same issue you're experiencing.

The answer got me thinking, can you clone this repository and add this line

options |= FILEOPENDIALOGOPTIONS.FOS_NODEREFERENCELINKS;

to open_file_picker.dart and run the example?

Just published a new version that has a new field: dereferenceLinks. By setting it to false, you can now directly open the shortcut file without resolving its target if that's what you want.
