Does Windows 7 use directory Junctions the same way Vista can? e.g. mklink /J?

C:\Users\emuz>mklink
Creates a symbolic link.

MKLINK [[/D] | [/H] | [/J]] Link Target

/D Creates a directory symbolic link. Default is a file
symbolic link.
/H Creates a hard link instead of a symbolic link.
/J Creates a Directory Junction.
Link specifies the new symbolic link name.
Target specifies the path (relative or absolute) that the new link
refers to.


So yes it does.

It's the next version of Windows after Vista, just as Vista was the next version after XP.

Are you serious?
Does Vista really suck this much?

Actually, Vista's fairly good now, but it had a bad start and people in large groups are too idiotic to notice.

I heard it can't run some old programs.

Game Maker had to make a converter for Vista to play old games.

Yeah, Vista doesn't have perfect old game support - Really, you can't expect it to support every software title out there designed for older, out-of-use system designs, memory addresssing, etc.

That's what Virtual Machines are for

It's not ancient but it should have been at least a tad bit more supportive.

The faults of Vista are a combination of a few things, but the compatibility issues are primarily due to a half-decent attempt at security in the operating system, which can't be done without breaking quite a bit of legacy applications.
