Win7 Platform Mklink command to create symbolic links

Friends who know about the Linux platform know the ln command, which makes it easy to create a symbolic link (also known as a soft link) to a directory or file. Symbolic links are similar to shortcuts under the Windows platform, but are much more powerful than shortcuts. It has the advantage of allowing a directory or file to have multiple portals but maintaining a single physical address to facilitate the management of applications and files on our own computers.

Windows Vista and Win7 also introduced a DOS command that makes it easy to create symbolic links, and that is, the Mklink,mklink command uses the following:

C:\>mklink
Creates a symbolic link.

MKLINK [[/d] | [H] | [/j]] Link Target

/d Creates a directory symbolic link. The default is a file symbolic link.
/h creates a hard link instead of a symbolic link.
/j Create a directory join.
LINK Specifies the new symbolic link name.
TARGET Specifies the path (relative or absolute) referenced by the new link.

where the/d and/j are followed by the absolute address, there is no difference between the two parameters.

For example, create a symbolic link on the desktop, link to a folder on the E-disk, the following can be accessed through the mklink /d test E:\abc\work Desktop The fastest access to the symbolic link of the directory and files can be directly deleted, the original directory and the original file has no effect.
