I can't see it updated.

In fact I suggest providing a script.


1. Open an elevated Command Prompt.
2. Paste the following commands:

cd /d C:\
mkdir filechooser
cd filechooser
mkdir target
mklink /d link target

3. Navigate to C:\filechooser in the JFileChooser.
4. ...
5. When done with testing, paste the following commands to remove the 'filechooser' directory

cd \
rmdir /s /q filechooser

or use File Explorer to clean it up.
