Some typo's, I corrected them.

I'm creating a symbolic link using the command below:

 

mklink F:\PackageSource\SWDistribution\MakelinkTest\SCCM\7z920.exe
F:\PackageSource\SWDistribution\MakelinkTest\7z920.exe

 

It does get created, and if I run 7z920.exe from a command line it launches,
but if I double click on
F:\PackageSource\SWDistribution\MakelinkTest\SCCM\7z920.exe from explorer it
says the specified path does not exist, check the path and try again.

 

I found an old article stating that you would get this behavior with Vista
in regards to the mui not being loaded.

.        http://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/931707

 

Does this same issue exist with Windows 2012/Win8?

 

How do others create symbolic link with the ability to launch the .exe
(link) from explorer?  If I do the same thing with an .msi as the link it
does launch from Explorer.

 

Thanks

 

Rob
