How can I force Windows 7 to update the user profile path?

Just fyi, there is a GUI to make the creation of symbolic links easier - symlinker

With this utility you can use the symlink application Microsoft Windows has well hidden inside the cmd.exe app.

The goal is just make it easier to create symbolic links, hard links, or directory junctions, using a pretty simple interface, so no more bogus command line to do it...

This application needs .Net Framework 3.5 to run (SP1 recommended)
