    Quick Tip: Creating Symlinks with PowerShell (or actually with cmd...)

    "

    To create a symlink when in a PowerShell session, you can use the following command:

    cmd /c mklink <link_path_to_create> <original_path>
    

    If you want to symlink a directory rather than a file, use the following command:

    cmd /c mklink /D <link_path_to_create> <original_path>
