This is a follow up bug issue of #220.
Symlinks can still not be created properly on windows what makes the shared software feature useless on win.
As a result you always end up with this error:

Access is denied.

Or this one:

You do not have sufficient privilege to perform this operation.

Due to the junction used the DEVON_SOFTWARE_PATH has to point to the same device or drive letter but that is no real limitation.
Incredible that I finally made this great feature also work on windows.
