How to Create Symbolic Links on Windows

What are Symbolic Links? Windows 10, 8, 7, and Vista all support symbolic links, also known as symlinks, that point to a file or folder on your system.

DID YOU KNOW? "pem", "cer", and "crt" are all the same certificate formats called x509. The only difference is cosmetic via different extensions.

I thought it would be useful to do a quick blog post showing how to use the diskpart and wmic tools. Google them for lots of info from the Microsoft site – but be careful not to play around with any of the destructive options on productions systems. The options I'm using below will … [Read more...]
