Simply use a NTFS "Junction" and you're all set

- y4mi 10y agowhy an extra programm? simple command would suffice. ``` mklink /J C:\R\R-3.3.1 "C:\Program Files\R-3.3.1" ``` remember though, deleting that created Junction removes the files from the filesystem! you need to unlink it... deleted 90 GBs like that once sigh
