Maybe the user rights of accessing the symlink and the rights of the program 
itself mismatch until you reboot. Running DC++ as an administrator may resolve 
the problem in these cases.
Anyway, thanks for confirming this as a non-issue.

Title:
  DC++ .870 fails to follow symbolic links

Status in DC++:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  After upgrading to .870 DC++ will not follow Windows symbolic links
  when moving files from DC++ temp to the final destination.

  I have many messages like this:

  [09:43] Unable to move <N:\DC++temp\ELP 1975-05-25
  d1t06.flac.PUW3JQHMQ2KI2JVXXELJYN7EIH6KCZGUXFM44TY.dctmp> to
  <N:\Emerson Lake & Palmer + Related\elp 1974-05-25 Ahoy Halle,
  Rotterdam, Netherlands cdr\Disc 1\ELP 1975-05-25 d1t06.flac> (The
  system cannot find the path specified.); renamed to <N:\DC++temp\ELP
  1975-05-25 d1t06.flac>

  The path N:\Emerson Lake & Palmer + Related is a link to a folder on
  another drive.

  I can manually move the files so I know the link is working correctly (from a 
non-elevated command prompt):
  N:\DC++temp>move "ELP 1975-05-25 d1t06.flac" "N:\Emerson Lake & Palmer + 
Related\elp 1974-05-25 Ahoy Halle, Rotterdam, Netherlands cdr\Disc 1"
          1 file(s) moved.

  I have had to back off to .868, where this worked fine
