v0.6 First version of Autohotkey rewrite
(INFO, yes versions 0.2-0.5 where not used to indicate the rewrite)
This is the new version of the old python script.
Its also automated so you just have to:
- Download your preferred script version
ether "mklinktool+installer.ahk"
or "mklinktool+installer.exe" - Run the script and answer a few questions.
It's recommend to run the script as admin when installing,
because it will ask you for admin if it needs it anyway
and then you will have to reenter the answers you have already given - The installation folder is recommend to be set to:
"C:\Windows\System32" if your running the exe (complied version)
so you can use as a command line tool. - The ahk script path does no matter,
just use a folder were you like the tool to stay in
- If you have no idea what the options mean,
the defaults are pretty good so you don't
really have to edit them but you can if you like to. - After that there should be an entry in the
context menu to paste copied files as syslinks,
keep in mind that this is added to the classic
context menu and not the new windows 11 menu - The script will also create a Uninstaller file
and a Re Adder file, which Unistall the script and
Re add Task And Reg Entry's Respectively
v0.1 (python version deprecated)
This is the First and only python version of this script.
The reason is simple it was using Autohotkey code anyway,
so I made a new script that works just with Autohotkey.
But just in case you still want the old version
here is the list of the required files:
- mklink-tool.py (the base script)
(this requires autohotkey and python to be installed) OR - mklink-tool.exe (the compiled base script)
(this won't require python to be installed)
(when you download the source code its located in the dist folder) - Folder-Mklink-without-UAC-new.reg
(adds an context menu entry for pasting syslinks)
(this will start a task that has to be added manually,
alternatively you have to change the entry to start the script and not the task)
and some basic explanations:
- Fist you will have to place that script in some folder it can stay
eg. "C:/Mklink-tool" or "C:\Windows\System32" (Only recommend with the exe file) - You will have to create a task that starts the script,
if you don't want to to deal with the admin prompt,
otherwise do as instructed at the reg file section above. - Now this script should work but I recommend the new Autohotkey version.
