Symlink Windows UAC protection #21

Hi By default you cannot create symbolic links for models right away because of Windows security. Running the program as an administrator does not solve the problem either. I think you need to add this information either in the program or in the readme

You have to add user rights following this instruction: Open gpedit.msc Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\User Rights Assignment\Create symbolic links Type the user name and click “Check Names” then OK. Reboot the computer

There should be another alternative for people with Windows 10/11 Family (no GPedit)

Couldn’t it be possible to use instead a self elevating script such as this one ? https://stackoverflow.com/a/27083780

Tested on my side, it works correctly.
