Open a command prompt and type mklink /?

 

Simple and easy to use. I use directory symlinks for a lot of redirection. Apps don't even know. For instance I have games like World of Warcraft, Star Wars Online, Diablo III, etc installed on my SSD but their large multi-gigabyte data files are on a secondary platter drive. They don't even hiccup.

Yeah don't like symlinks link option

If you're  thinking of just redirecting your documents, videos, music folder then it is simple. I have it on all my computers to point them all to my server (not AD). If you open your user folder, browse to C:\users\%username% you will see all your user data folders. Right click these and select properties. You will see a location tab in the properties windows from where you can set a new location.
