Windows 7 and symlinked folders

[Hyper]

I had everything working great when I was using Vista(64). I recently upgraded to Windows 7(64). I had my game folders on a different drive than my system, so the files remained untouched.

Now that I am trying to get my multiboxing setup working again, I a rather strange error. (see attachment)

I had this directory structure under Vista (64)
actual install directory

D:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\

Sym linked directories (to the install directory)

D:\World of Warcraft\wow1\
D:\World of Warcraft\wow2\
D:\World of Warcraft\wow3\
D:\World of Warcraft\wow4\
D:\World of Warcraft\wow5\

In addition, all the files and directories inside were symlinked (except the WTF folder).

I have tried deleting them and re-creating them again under Win7 to no avail. Here is an example command that I was using in an admin cmd window

mklink "D:\World of Warcraft\wow1\Wow.exe" "D:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Wow.exe"

This command completes and makes the link, but it still won't let me start WoW.

I tried setting up new directories that only the folders were linked and actual copies of the executable files in each folder and the system slow down was as bad if I were running multiple folders of WoW.

Has anyone run into this problem or have any ideas on how to fix it?
