Administrator Permissions: Creating symbolic links typically requires elevated privileges (administrator rights) unless the SeCreateSymbolicLinkPrivilege is enabled for non-admin users.
Cross-Volume Support: Supported; symbolic links can point to targets on different volumes.
Network Support: Supported; can link to targets on network shares (e.g., \\server\share), but performance may be slower.
Broken Links: Symbolic links can exist without the target being present. Accessing a broken link will result in an error.
Relative vs. Absolute: Symlinks can use either relative or absolute paths. */
