> Currently all the Agent binaries are required to run as Administrator on Windows because only Administrator has the ability to create symlinks.
> It will soon be possible to set Windows into "developer mode" to resolve this issue, but in the medium term, we need to investigate what it will take to remove the dependency on symlinks, so that we are not dependent on this setting.
