Posting this as it helped someone else...

So you guys experiencing this 'Symlinks not allowed' error - have you redirected your My Documents away from its usual location to somewhere like say like another physical drive or to OneDrive?

A way to check would be to go to C:\Users\BigNoob\Documents\ - do you see your personal pictures of your flaccid pink friend?

If you do not see your files then you have done redirection to another location, and this is the issue affect PR.
