    Mklink and software installation


    Hello all,
    I'm using mklink to put the installed software on the D:\, that is installed on c:\program files or programfiles(x86). In order to do this I have created (2) batch files. One for mklink and one for installation of programs. Now where do I use mklinkand use to install the programs. Do I use mklink before the setup of a program or after?

    Install Diablo 3 on Linux

    Just install PlayOnLinux? Why did they make step 2 and 3 of this "tutorial"?

    Anyway, looking at the supported software list for PlayOnLinux, D3 is a step in the right direction. Lack of gaming is a factor for a lot of people when deciding on an OS, if more recent games get ported it may help migrate them to their preferred choice.

    MKLINK not recognized

    I want to use MKLINK (in Powershell) to sync a folder to OneDrive.

    There are many articles about using this is Windows 10.

    But I get this message from Powershell:

    mklink : The term 'mklink' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program.

    Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

    How do I get access to MKLINK?

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
    Fan speeds
    Power limit
    Temp limit
    Voltages
    Core speeds
    Memory speeds
