Windows Shortcuts in FolderItem path

I’m sending a path String to a Windows host via URLConnection and I want it to look for a file inside the “C:\ProgramData\Avatars” folder and it works fine.

Now I want to store the Avatars folder on a different drive, so I have set up a Shortcut to the new folder as “C:\ProgramData\Avatars.lnk”, but Windows won’t resolve this. I can’t use FolderItem.ChildAt(Avatars.lnk) because it’s being executed on a different computer.

Is there a workaround to place Shortcuts inside a FolderItem path?
