OK, I think the problem is when running the above command, WinRAR uses a
relative path to create a symlink which fails. It works if you specify an
absolute path as target:
Start /wait "" "%ProgramFiles%\WinRAR\winrar.exe" x openssl-1.0.1h.tar.gz
C:\MyFolder\OpenSSL-Output\
With this command it will extract it to C:\MyFolder\OpenSSL-Output\ and create
the symlinks successfully.
Unfortunately, WinRAR is proprietary software (not free). I have tried 7-Zip,
but instead of actually creating the symlinks, it just seems to copy the file
to the path where the symlink should be created.
