According to this blog post Windows 10 version 1703 and later have possibility to allow symbolic links creation without elevation while in "Developer Mode". This is achieved through the CreateSymbolicLink API's new flag: SYMBOLIC_LINK_FLAG_ALLOW_UNPRIVILEGED_CREATE.

mklink utility and Git for Windows both support this. It would be very nice if the Far itself also has this feature.

Fabulously retarded design decision...
Ok, we will use this flag.
