title: Creating SymbolicLink with PowerShell does not work
body: <p>I'm running my PowerShell as Admin and I try to create a symbolic link to another directory.
  To do so, I want to use the <code>New-Item</code> cmdlet as described in the 
  <a href="https://docs.microsoft.com/de-de/powershell/wmf/5.0/feedback_symbolic" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Microsoft documentation</a>.</p>
  
  <pre><code>New-Item -ItemType SymbolicLink -Path C:\Temp -Name TestDir -Value C:\LinkedDir
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I made sure, all directories (except the symbolic link itself) exist, but still I get this error:</p>
  
  <pre>
  New-Item : Type unkonwn Typ. Only "file" and "directory" can be used.
  In Line:1 Row:9
  + New-Item &lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;  -ItemType SymbolicLink -Path C:\Temp -Name TestDir -Value C:\LinkedDir
      + CategoryInfo          : InvalidArgument: (:) [New-Item], PSArgumentException
      + FullyQualifiedErrorId : Argument,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.NewItemCommand
  </pre>
  
  <p>If I use the New-Item cmdlet just like this </p>
  
  <pre><code>PS C:\Temp&gt; New-Item -ItemType SymbolicLink
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I can enter the paths manually, so this means, that my PowerShell actually knows the cmdlet.</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone know what the problem is and can help me out?</p>
