If `Link` exists, deletes it and re-creates it if it doesn't point to `Target`. Both `-Link` and `-Target` parameters accept relative paths for values. Any non-rooted paths are converted to full paths using the current location, i.e. the path returned by `Get-Location`. Beginning with Carbon 2.0, returns a `System.IO.DirectoryInfo` object for the target path, if one is created. Returns a `System.IO.DirectoryInfo` object for the junction, if it is created and/or updated. .OUTPUTS System.IO.DirectoryInfo. To return a `DirectoryInfo` object for installed junction, use the `PassThru` switch. .LINK New-CJunction .LINK Remove-CJunction .EXAMPLE Install-CJunction -Link 'C:\Windows\system32Link' -Target 'C:\Windows\system32' Creates the `C:\Windows\system32Link` directory, which points to `C:\Windows\system32`. .EXAMPLE Install-CJunction -Link C:\Projects\Foobar -Target 'C:\Foo\bar' -Force This example demonstrates how to create the target directory if it doesn't exist. After this example runs, the directory `C:\Foo\bar` and junction `C:\Projects\Foobar` will be created. #> [CmdletBinding(SupportsShouldProcess=$true)] [OutputType([IO.DirectoryInfo])] param( [Parameter(Mandatory=$true)] [Alias("Junction")] [string] # The junction to create/update.
