- The *SeCreateSymbolicLinkPrivilege* is required in order to create
- symlinks, so the function is only available when the privilege is held.
- This privilege is not typically granted to regular users but is available

- Either obtaining the privilege or running your application as an
- administrator are ways to successfully create symlinks.
