I had the same issue on Windows 8 (not 8.1), no link created in regular or run 
as admin.
If I tried to remake the link, I would get notified that it will overwrite the 
existing one (though no link existed, I checked though cmd prompt).

I found another program similar to this one that could not use symbolic links, 
but required a download of dll files (Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Runtime 
Libraries).
Since I downloaded and installed the dlls, Symlinker has worked (if "Run as 
Administrator").
