System.IO.IOException: Access to the path - nuget when creating a nulink #32

Hi Felix,

I'm hitting an Access Denied issue similar to https://github.com/nwheels-io/NuLink/issues/24 except it occurs when running in Admin!

I've given Everyone full control of the folder and it still fails.

Any suggestions?

I quickly checked the code as the stacktrace indicates the error occurred Moving a folder.

Then I decided to create the folder for the backup, I then ran the command and it worked:

I'll see if I can design something open source to add to this project. It'd be handly to specify a directory to recursively iterate through looking for csprojs and particular NuGet Refs and then doing the SymLinks. It would be great to create a small file of what directoies have been short-cut so the old/current SymLinks can be easily removed. There's also an issue where I noticed the pdb file isn't copied along with the proj DLL and you have to do that manually.

When you have an instance of Visual Studio open that is locking the NuGet package then this problem occurs. Simply close any instance that could cause a FileLock and retry!
