 Prerequisites: Docker is available on the host, and VS Code has the `ms-vscode-remote.remote-containers` extension installed.
 
 1. Download the repository (e.g., `git clone https://github.com/iplaylf2/vscode-container.git`).
-2. Copy `projects/.template/` to `projects/<your-project-name>`.
+2. Copy `projects/.template/` to `projects/<your-project-name>` (Windows: do not copy; use `robocopy` in Notes).
 3. Edit `projects/<your-project-name>/docker-compose.yaml` as needed.
 4. Open `projects/<your-project-name>` in VS Code and run `Dev Containers: Reopen in Container`.
 
 After the container is created, VS Code opens the workspace at `/mnt/<your-project-name>`. The data lives in a Docker volume named `<your-project-name>_workspace`.

+## Notes

+### Symlinks
+
+This repo uses symlinks under `projects/.template` for shared configuration. On Windows, run the following commands as Administrator:
+
+```powershell
+# Enable symlink support in this repo.
+git config --local core.symlinks true
+
+# Re-checkout files to restore symlinks when Git deleted them on Windows (destructive: discards local changes).
+git checkout -f
+
+# Copy the template while preserving symlinks and skipping unchanged files.
+robocopy projects/.template projects/<your-project-name> /E /SL /XC /XN /XO
