Following some hack for changing home directory name, you need to link the old directory to the new. Instruction said to use mklink. However, mklink is not recognized in Windows-11 Home.

Where did it go?

Has it been disabled or removed from the latest windows?

If not, where do I find it?

  • Thanks, I already resolved it using New-Item -ItemType SymbolicLink -Path "C:\<old>" -Target "C:\<new>". Just very weird that googling didn't return anything about that, while the MS own page doesn't say anything about not being available on 10/11. – not2qubit Nov 28 '23 at 02:15
  • It's available in Command Prompt but not PowerShell (because it's an internal command of the former instead of a standalone executable; like "shell builtins"). – Tom Yan Nov 28 '23 at 02:19
  • @not2qubit - It is available but you were using PowerShell profile instead of the Command Prompt profile within Windows Terminal – Ramhound Nov 28 '23 at 03:24
