Bug: Windows 10 Symlink required privilege

[vunhatchuong]

Problem

Windows 10 symlink required privilege:

Looks like it hasn't been resolved: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/22874

Solution

You can either require privilege or use cmd through os.exec.Command:

if runtime.GOOS == "windows" {
    if err = exec.Command("cmd", "mklink", "/d", link , destination).Run(); err == nil {
        return nil
    }
}
