Solved Symbolic links

[malonn]

Wine creates symbolic links to the /home folder for various directories such as Documents and Downloads. How do I remove them from being symbolic links? I don't want to delete the directories, 'cause they link to folders that have contents I want. I just want to remove the link, without deleting the directories. So, a link to my /home/<name>/Downloads folder becomes a new folder called "Downloads". How would I do that?

EDIT:
I looks like "rm" will do it. Is there anything I need to be cautious about. These links shouldn't be hardlinks becuase they are not on another filesystem.

Solved: Tested with "rm <path/to/symlink>". It works. Sorry to waste digital paper. A quick net search answered this easily.

Not a problem, we all had to learn - the internet can come up with a surprising amount of answers, you just have to know how to ask the question.....

Yeah, it's all about the keywords. I've seen tons of searches over the years that came up bunk, but switching 1 or 2 keywords—gold.

I always start my search either Linux [or the distribution family [Debian, Slackware, RHEL]] it cuts out a lot of crap,
It's like asking a question here, say.. Why won't my Wi-Fi work? Opposed to why won't my TP link Wi-Fi not work?[ most of us know TP use RTL chipsets so we are already 2 steps ahead]
