 The guidelines above should work for Windows, and this configuration is covered by the CI pipeline.
 Some tests may be skipped in your local environment if symbolic linking is not enabled for your filesystem
 OR if your test process does not have the required permissions for a directory.

-== Usage on Windows
-
-Some JBang commands need to create symbolic links when running on Windows.
-For example, this is required for Managing JDKs or editing the files with the `edit` command.
-
-If you encounter issues on Windows related to the creation of symbolic links follow
-these instructions:
-
-1. From Windows 10 onwards you can turn on "Developer Mode", this will automatically
-enable the possibility to create symbolic links. Read here how to enable this mode:
-https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/get-started/enable-your-device-for-development[Enable your device for development]. On Windows 11 this might already
-be enabled by default.
-
-2. If you're using a Java version equal to or newer than 13 then you're good to go.
-This Java version already works correctly. Make sure that JBang is actually using
-that Java version, either by running `java -version` to check if the Java on the
-`PATH` is version 13 or newer, or if you don't have Java available on the `PATH`
-by running `jbang jdk default 13` (or some newer version of course).
-
-3. If you need symbolic links to work on older Java versions as well, then there
-is no  other option than setting the correct privileges for your user by enabling
-the `Create symbolic links` group policy setting. See the instruction on this page
-for more information on how to do this:
-https://superuser.com/a/105381[Permission to make symbolic links in Windows].
