Environment: Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1
I created a symbolic link to gacutil.exe for .NET 4.0. The command is:
mklink C:\Users\Administrator\bin\gacutil4.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.0A\bin\NETFX 4.0 Tools\gacutil.exe"
When the link is executed, it displays nothing.
C:\Users\Administrator\bin> gacutil
C:\Users\Administrator\bin>
In original directory, it displays help.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.0A\bin\NETFX 4.0 Tools>gacutil.exe
Microsoft (R) .NET Global Assembly Cache Utility. Version 4.0.30319.17929

In Microsoft Connect, a related feedback is found.
Although the feedback describes it was fixed on windows 7, it should be fixed in windows server 2008 R2 as well. I have tried Windows Update, but the link still does not work.
Is there any solution for that? Or is there any optional KB/Hotfix I should apply to my machine?
Any help will be appreciated!
