I have a program that installs to mydocs (i know, its a horrible idea but I didnt make the program). When dealing with that situation, POL doesnt like to create shortcuts to non-bottled programs. I am looking for a simple way to delete or point the mydocs symlink to something within the folder. This is trivial when installing manually but I am looking at creating the script for some seriously noobish friends to use. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In the end I know I can just delete the symlink and create a new folder via the script but I was hoping for something built in.

You can try the PrivateUserDirs pseudo component:
[code language=playonlinux]
POL_Call POL_Function_PrivateUserDirs
[/code]
