Windows 10: Library file size. Why are the files the same size as the original?

When I open Explorer, the files in my libraries are the same size as the original.If these were just pointers, shortcuts, wouldnt they be very small.When I search for large files, I see a dupe of each...one in its original folder, and another exactly the same in the library folder.What dont I understand?Thanks

Page file size?

Deleting it is fine, but keep in mind if you delete your page file a memory dump has no where to go and will be deleted. Not a big deal but just FYI. Really there is nothing to gain by deleting a page file. Except for the physical space. Windows set your page file the same size as your ram for a reason. So suggesting you should delete it if you have 16+ Gb ram and wont need it is inaccurate. You can also recover Data on a BSOD if you have the dump file

"Microsoft says that, when the page file is set to a system-managed size and the computer is configured for automatic memory dumps, “Windows sets the size of the paging file large enough to ensure that a kernel memory dump can be captured most of the time.” As Microsoft points out, crash dumps are an important consideration when deciding what size the page file should be. The page file must be large enough to contain the memory data."

BAT File That Deletes Files Below Specific Size

Sure ...

@Echo off <-- don't print this line or any of the preceeding lines to the console window.
pushd "My directoy" <-- in the quoted directory
for %%j in (*) <- for every file in the directory
do
if %%~zj <-- if the size of the file
lss 10000<-- is less than 10k
del %%j <-- delete the file
popd <-- go back to original directory.
