Move and redirect folders with mklink

If you want to redirect folders to move them to a different location (for example moving a big file to a non SSD disk), you can more them with the following admin command.

mklink /j c:\oldpath\ d:\newpath

Write these into an admin command prompt and the old path will be redirected to the new path.

You can either do hard or softlinks and create junctions or symlinks or junction points.

Windows also has a command calles subst to do this.
