Yes, but also, you must be running cmd.exe *as* Admin if you have UAC enabled, since the normal cmd.exe window can’t auto-elevate itself. > and use a special command that is separately installed. That sounds like old information. MKLINK is a cmd.exe builtin. Simple test case: c:\> set PATH= c:\> mklink /? Creates a symbolic link. MKLINK [[/D] | [/H] | [/J]] Link Target /D Creates a directory symbolic link. Default is a file symbolic link. /H Creates a hard link instead of a symbolic link. /J Creates a Directory Junction. Link Specifies the new symbolic link name. Target Specifies the path (relative or absolute) that the new link refers to. c:\> mklink ASeriesOfUnfortunateEvents Windows You do not have sufficient privilege to perform this operation.
