Its also automated so you just have to:
- Download your preferred script version
ether "mklinktool+installer.ahk"
or "mklinktool+installer.exe" - Run the script and answer a few questions.
It's recommend to run the script as admin when installing,
because it will ask you for admin if it needs it anyway
and then you will have to reenter the answers you have already given - The installation folder is recommend to be set to:
"C:\Windows\System32" if your running the exe (complied version)
so you can use as a command line tool. - The ahk script path does no matter,
just use a folder were you like the tool to stay in
- If you have no idea what the options mean,
the defaults are pretty good so you don't
really have to edit them but you can if you like to. - After that there should be an entry in the
context menu to paste copied files as syslinks,
keep in mind that this is added to the classic
context menu and not the new windows 11 menu - The script will also create a Uninstaller file
and a Re Adder file, which Unistall the script and
